mesajla

Mesajla is a Turkish adverbial form formed from the noun mesaj (meaning 'message') and the instrumental suffix -la. It denotes the means or instrument by which an action is performed, effectively meaning 'by message' or 'via a message.'

Origin and morphology: Turkish uses the suffix -la/-le to mark instrument or means. The last vowel of mesaj is a, so the form is mesajla. It functions as an adverbial modifier and can accompany verbs of communication, notification, or coordination to indicate that the action occurs through messaging rather than by other means.

Usage and nuance: Mesajla is common in everyday Turkish as well as in formal writing when referring to texting, SMS, or other electronic messages. It can replace longer phrases such as mesaj yoluyla (via a message) and tends to be more concise. It is appropriate for describing processes that rely on written messages for transmission of information and can occur in narrative or instructional contexts.

Examples: Duyuruyu mesajla bildirdiler. (They reported the announcement by message.) Projeyi mesajla koordine ettiler. (They coordinated the project via message.) Bize bilgi mesajla iletildi. (Information was conveyed to us by message.)
