bütçesiyle

Bütçesiyle is a Turkish phrase meaning “with his/her budget.” It is formed from bütçe (budget) plus the third-person possessive suffix -si (his/her) and the instrumental suffix -yle (with). In Turkish, this combination yields an instrumental/comitative expression that denotes the means, constraint, or manner by which an action is performed.

Function and usage: The phrase functions as a means marker, often accompanying verbs to indicate actions carried out within the limits of a given budget or using that budget as the means. Examples include: “Projeyi bütçesiyle yürüttü” (He carried out the project with his budget) and “Bütçesiyle hareket etti” (He acted according to his budget). It is commonly used in business, journalism, and everyday speech to emphasize budgetary constraints.

Related forms: The generic instrumental form bütçeyle (with the budget) does not specify possession. The possessive form emphasizes whose budget is involved. Turkish also uses other possessive plus instrumental combinations for different nouns with similar constructions.

Etymology: bütçe is borrowed from French budget, reflecting the sense of a financial plan; bütçesiyle derives from this noun with Turkish possessive and instrumental suffixes.
