Sesle

Sesle is a Turkish adverbial form meaning “by voice” or “with voice.” It is derived from ses (sound, voice) plus the instrumental suffix -le. In Turkish grammar, sesle marks the means or manner of an action and is used to describe actions performed through vocal input or auditory means, typically in contrast to yazılı (written) input.

Common usages include sesle arama (voice search), sesle komut (voice command), and sesle iletişim (communication by voice). The construction is widely found in technology and consumer electronics when describing voice-enabled features, such as sesle kontrol or sesle asistan. It does not refer to a specific device or organization; rather, it is a productive word-formation pattern in Turkish.

Sesle phrases are typical in human–computer interaction contexts where speech recognition and voice assistants are present. While sesle is primarily a linguistic form, it is frequently encountered on product manuals, user interfaces, and marketing copy in Turkish-speaking contexts.
