Esinemisega

Esinemisega is a grammatical form in Estonian derived from the noun esinemine, which means performance or public appearance, and the comitative suffix -ga. The combination esinemisega literally means “with the performance” and is used to express accompaniment, association, or means related to a performance or appearance. It is formed by taking the genitive form esinemise and adding the comitative suffix, resulting in one word.

In usage, esinemisega appears in contexts where something is described as being accompanied by a performance or linked to a performance. It can express that a particular event, arrangement, or activity includes a performance, or that an action is performed as part of a program. The form can be found in formal and semi-formal Estonian texts, including event descriptions, program notes, press releases, and critical writing about performances or appearances.

Semantically, esinemisega belongs to the broader Estonian system of expressing accompaniment and means with the comitative suffix -ga. Its meaning can cover both literal accompaniment (a performance occurring alongside other elements) and more abstract associations (a program organized around a performance, or features related to a performance).

Notes on related forms: esinemine (to perform, a performance) is the base noun; esinemise (genitive) denotes “of the performance,” which combines with -ga to form esinemisega. Related phrases include esinemisega seotud (related to the performance) and esinemisega kaasnev (accompanying the performance).
