Csúszdán

Csúszdán is the locative singular form of the Hungarian noun csúszda, meaning a slide. A csúszda is a smooth, inclined surface designed for sliding, commonly found in playgrounds, schools, and water parks, and may also refer to a slide used for entertainment or recreational purposes. The locative form csúszdán is used to indicate location on or atop a slide, as in sentences describing where an action takes place.

In usage, csúszdán marks a specific slide when accompanied by a definite article or possessive: a csúszdán. It answers questions such as where something is located or happening. For example, A gyerek a csúszdán játszik (The child is playing on the slide). The term can appear in descriptive, instructional, or narrative contexts, where the slide surface is the reference point for movement or activity.

Morphologically, csúszdán is formed from the stem csúszd- of csúszda, with the locative suffix -án/-én added after the final -a is dropped, yielding csúszdán. The noun csúszda has related forms in other cases and numbers, such as csúszda (nominative), csúszdák (plural), and csúszdáról (from the slide).
