Címben

Címben is the inessive form of the Hungarian noun cím, meaning "title." It denotes the location "in the title" and is used when referring to something that appears inside the title of a work. The form is created by adding the inessive suffix -ben to the stem cím, in accordance with Hungarian vowel harmony (the stem ends with a front vowel, so the form is -ben).

Usage-wise, címben is employed in phrases such as a mű címében or a vers címében to indicate that a motif, term, or name occurs within a title. It is common in literary analysis, bibliographic descriptions, and discussions of how titles reflect or encode meanings in a work. The construction can combine with possessives and other modifiers, for example a könyv címében or a tanulmány címében.

Examples illustrate its function: "A vers címében a fő motívum a természet." (In the poem’s title, the main motif is nature.) "A regény címében rejtélyes utalás található." (In the novel’s title, a mysterious allusion is found.) "A tanulmány címében a fő téma a gazdasági problémák." (In the study’s title, the main topic is economic problems.)

Overall, címben is a standard locative form used to reference elements that appear within a title, aligning with Hungarian case usage to express location in or within a nominal phrase.
