saylarla

Sayılarla is a Turkish expression meaning “with numbers” or “numerically.” It is formed from the noun sayı (number), which takes the plural suffix -lar to become sayılar (numbers), and then the comitative/instrumental suffix -la to yield sayılarla, literally “with numbers.” The construction is used to indicate the means or method by which something is done, particularly in contexts involving data, statistics, or numerical description.

In Turkish grammar, sayılarla consists of a stem (sayılar) plus the instrumental/comitative suffix -la, which harmonizes with the last vowel of the stem. The resulting phrase functions as an adverbial modifier or as part of a predicate, conveying that actions are performed using numbers or numerical data. It can appear with verbs such as göstermek (to show), ifade etmek (to express), kullanmak (to use), and benzetmek (to compare) in numerical terms.

Common uses include statistical reporting, data presentation, and scientific writing. Examples include:

- Bu sonuçlar sayılarla gösterilmiştir. (These results have been shown numerically.)

- Sayılarla ifade etmek gerekirse, büyüme yüzde 4’tür. (To express this numerically, growth is 4 percent.)

Note that the standard spelling is sayılarla; some nonstandard renders such as saylarla are occasionally encountered but do not reflect standard orthography.
