ilerlemesiyle

ilerlemesiyle is a Turkish grammatical construction meaning “with its progress” or “through its advancement.” It is built from the noun ilerleme (progress) with the third-person possessive suffix -si to form ilerlemesi (its progress), followed by the instrumental suffix -yle, resulting in ilerlemesiyle (with its progress / through its progression). The phrase functions as an instrumental or adverbial modifier, signaling means, cause, or condition tied to the subject’s progress.

Usage of ilerlemesiyle is most common in formal or descriptive Turkish, including written reports, analyses, and academic prose. It can introduce a clause or modify a noun phrase, connecting outcomes or changes to the progress of a phenomenon. For example: ilerlemesiyle elde edilen sonuçlar (the results obtained through its progress) or ilerlemesiyle bu süreçte değişiklikler görüldü (changes were observed in this process due to its progression).

Etymology and morphology: ilerlemesiyle is formed from ilerleme (progress) + -si (possessive 3rd person) + -yle (instrumental), with ordinary Turkish vowel harmony applied to the suffix -yle. In more colloquial speech, speakers may use alternative expressions such as ilerlemesine bağlı or ilerlemesi nedeniyle to convey a similar meaning, though ilerlemesiyle emphasizes the instrumental or causal role of progress.
