Dolgozásával

Dolgozásával is a Hungarian grammatical form that expresses means or responsibility through someone’s work. It is formed from the noun dolgozás (work, labor) with a possessive suffix and the instrumental suffix -val/-vel, creating an instrumental possessive construction meaning “with his/her/its work” or “by his/her/its labor.”

Morphology and forms

- The base noun dolgozás can take a possessive suffix to indicate the owner: dolgozása (his/her/its work), dolgozásod (your work), dolgozásunk (our work), dolgozásuk (their work). Each of these can then combine with the instrumental suffix -val/-vel, resulting in forms such as:

- dolgozásával (with his/her/its work)

- dolgozásoddal (with your work)

- dolgozásunkkal (with our work)

- dolgozásukkal (with their work)

- These forms reflect both possession and the instrument of an action.

Usage

- Dolgozásával is typically used in formal or written Hungarian to highlight the means by which something occurs or the contribution of someone’s labor to an outcome. Example: A projekt sikere a csapat dolgozásával érhető el. (The project’s success is achieved through the team’s work.)

- It can appear with singular or plural possessors, and the choice of -val/-vel harmonizes with the preceding possessive suffix. For second-person reference, forms like dolgozásoddal may be used; for third person, dolgozásával is common.
