Aktiválni

Aktiválni is a Hungarian verb meaning to make something active, to start or enable a function, process, device, service, or account. It is used in technology, software, hardware, biology, medicine, and everyday language to describe turning on or triggering an operation that was inactive or disabled.

Etymology and form: Aktiválni is a native Hungarian verb formed from the adjective aktív (active) with the infinitive suffix -álni. The stem aktivál- is used across its conjugation. The related noun aktiválás denotes activation, while the adjective aktív describes something that is active. The word is commonly perceived as a loan-derived or blended term from Latin or Germanic sources, but functions as a fully integrated Hungarian verb.

Usage and context: In IT and consumer electronics, aktiválni a szoftvert, a licencet vagy egy szolgáltatást means to enable or authorize its use. In accounts and services, fiókot aktiválni or a szolgáltatást aktiválni refers to enabling access after verification. In biology or medicine, aktiválni egy receptor vagy folyamat means to trigger or initiate a biological response. While gyakran interchangeably used with bekapcsolni (to switch on), aktiválni emphasizes the intentional start of a function rather than mere power-on.

Grammar: Aktiválni is a regular -álni verb. It forms standard Hungarian conjugation (például aktiválok, aktiválsz, aktivál, aktiválunk, aktiváltok, aktiválnak). The past participle is aktivált, and the noun form is aktiválás. Examples: A funkció aktiválása megkönnyíti a használatot. The term is widely understood in technical and scientific contexts.
