على جهة يراد بها الثبوت واللزوم

[AzteK72]

An author of a book is explaining the linguistic meaning of بناء and states the following:

فهو عبارة عن وضع شيء على شيء على جهة يراد بها الثبوت واللزوم

The meaning is clear, but what does على جهة mean in this particular context?

 

[elroy]

I think they mean "in a way." I've never seen جهة used this way; it sounds funky to me. I would say على نحو.

Yes, and then the sentence after it details the way. Thanks.
