märkusega

Märkusega is the instrumental/comitative form of the Estonian noun märkus, meaning a note, remark, or annotation. The word literally conveys “with a note” or “bearing a note.” It is formed from the genitive stem märkuse plus the comitative suffix -ga, yielding märkusega. The plural form is märkustega.

In usage, märkusega is common in formal, bureaucratic, or editorial contexts where one describes something that is accompanied by an annotation or remark. It can modify nouns to indicate that a document, dataset, or statement includes a note or annotation. For comparison, other related forms include märkusena (as a note) and märkusest (from a note); these convey related but distinct meanings about the note itself rather than its accompanying presence.

Examples of use are typically found in written Estonian, such as official documents, academic texts, or archival descriptions, where items are described as existing “with a note” or “bearing a note.” For instance, one might encounter phrases describing a document “märkususega,” indicating that the document comes with an attached remark, clarification, or annotation; in contrast, märkusena would describe the note’s role rather than its physical accompaniment.

Märkusega thus functions as a formal, written-language tool to signal that something is accompanied by a note or annotation, and it is part of a family of related forms derived from märkus that express different nuances of note-related meaning.
