etkiyle

Etkiyle is a Turkish adverbial expression formed from etki, meaning influence or effect, plus the instrumental suffix -yle. It denotes that an action or outcome occurs by or under the influence of something. The sense is close to “by influence” or “as a result of,” and it can be used to attribute causation to an influencing source.

Usage and register: Etkiyle is primarily found in formal, literary, or historical Turkish. In everyday speech, etkisiyle is more common for expressing “as a result of the influence of.” Etkiyle can convey a slightly more abstract or generalized sense of influence and may be chosen for stylistic reasons or to achieve a particular tone.

Morphology and relation to other forms: The noun etki combines with the instrumental suffix -yle to form etkiyle, an adverbial phrase. A related and more frequently encountered form is etkisiyle, which explicitly marks possession of influence (the influence of X). Both forms convey a causal relationship, but etkisiyle is generally favored in contemporary prose for explicit attribution.
