birbirleriyle

Birbirleriyle is a Turkish word that functions as a reciprocal pronoun. It translates to "with each other" or "mutually" in English. The word is formed by combining the pronoun "birbiri" (each other, one another) with the instrumental suffix "-yle" (with). Therefore, "birbirleriyle" specifically denotes an action or relationship that is performed or experienced between two or more entities in a reciprocal manner.

This pronoun is essential for conveying mutual interactions and shared experiences in Turkish. For example, "Onlar birbirleriyle konuşuyorlar" translates to "They are talking with each other." Similarly, "Kardeşler birbirleriyle iyi anlaşıyor" means "The siblings get along well with each other." The use of "birbirleriyle" emphasizes the reciprocal nature of the verb's action, indicating that the subjects are both performing and receiving the action from one another. It is a singular, unified form that efficiently expresses this concept, unlike breaking it down into separate words in some other languages.
