ayarlayarak

Ayarlayarak isek, the Turkish word ayarlayarak is the gerund form of ayarlamak, meaning to adjust, set, or arrange. The suffix -arak attaches to the verb stem to form a verbal noun that expresses the manner or means by which an action is performed. In Turkish grammar, ayarlayarak functions as an adverbial participle, roughly translating as "by adjusting" or "while adjusting."

Usage and function: Ayarlayarak is used to indicate the method by which the main action occurs. It can introduce a subordinate clause describing how the result is achieved and is common in manuals, instructions, and technical writing as well as everyday speech. The form can appear at the beginning or inside a sentence and works with various tenses and auxiliary constructions.

Examples:

- Sıcaklığı ayarlayarak cihazı açtı. (He turned on the device by adjusting the temperature.)

- Kalibrasyonu ayarlayarak ölçümlerin doğruluğunu artırdı. (He improved the accuracy of the measurements by adjusting the calibration.)

- Kullanıcı arayüzünü ayarlayarak programın görünümünü değiştirdi. (By adjusting the user interface, he changed the program’s appearance.)

Notes: Ayarlayarak is distinct from other -arak forms and conveys a sense of method or approach. It is widely used in formal writing and technical contexts to emphasize how a result was achieved through adjustment or setting.
