arhitektuuriga

Arhitektuuriga is the instrumental case form of the Estonian noun arhitektuur, meaning architecture. It is formed by adding the instrumental suffix -iga to the stem arhitektuur, and it is used to express “with architecture” or “in relation to architecture” in various contexts. The form often marks accompaniment, means, or a characteristic associated with architecture rather than a standalone lexical entry.

In use, arhitektuuriga appears in phrases that discuss architecture as a field, influence, or framework. Examples include arhitektuuriga seotud küsimused (architecture-related questions) and arhitektuuriga seotud projektid (projects related to architecture). The construction is common in academic writing, journalism, and discourse about design, urbanism, and cultural heritage, where architecture serves as a reference point or qualifier.

The term is not a separate word with its own meaning, but a grammatical form that enables precise expression in Estonian. Its usage reflects how Estonian employs case forms to convey relation and means without additional prepositions in many typical contexts.
