Értékükben

Értékükben is a Hungarian adverbial expression meaning "in terms of their value" or "with regard to their value." It is formed from the noun érték (value) plus the third-person plural possessive suffix -ük and the locative suffix -ben, resulting in értékükben. The phrase functions as an adverbial complement that specifies the dimension by which a statement is evaluated, typically the value or merit of the entities discussed.

Usage attitudes and context: The expression appears most often in formal, analytical, or evaluative writing and in comparisons. It is commonly used with verbs of comparison or assessment, such as különbözik (to differ), összehasonlítani (to compare), or értékelni (to evaluate). It emphasizes comparative merit rather than mere quantity.

Examples:

- A két megoldás értékükben különbözik. (The two solutions differ in terms of their value.)

- Összehasonlítva az ajánlatokat, értékükben ez a verzió előnyösebb. (Compared to the offers, in value terms this version is more advantageous.)

Notes:

- A plural form értékükben refers to the values of multiple items; a singular counterpart is értékében, which refers to one item's value.

- The expression is written as a single word and is not typically split in text.
