Menüüga

Menüüga is the Estonian comitative form of the noun menüü (menu). It is created by adding the comitative suffix -ga to the noun, yielding the meaning “with a menu” or “together with the menu.” In Estonian, the comitative expresses accompaniment or association and is used when something is described as being provided or considered in conjunction with a menu. As a grammatical form, menüüga functions within sentences rather than as a standalone lexical item, and it appears in contexts where a menu is part of a service, package, or description.

Etymology: Menüü is a loanword borrowed into Estonian from the word menu, itself of French origin, and the suffix -ga is a productive comitative marker in Estonian. The combination yields the familiar phrase “with a menu” in various phrases.

Usage: Menüüga is commonly found in restaurant signage, menus, hospitality materials, and event descriptions that mention the menu as part of what is offered. It answers questions such as “with what?” or “in conjunction with what?” and integrates into standard Estonian sentence structure, adapting to surrounding words through normal agreement.

Translation: In English, menüüga translates as “with a menu” or, depending on context, “with the menu” or “including the menu” when describing a package or offer.
