Elkötelezettséggel

Elkötelezettséggel is the instrumental form of the Hungarian noun elkötelezettség, which roughly covers commitment, dedication, or obligation. In standard use, elkötelezettség denotes a state of being bound to a cause, task, or duty, often with a positive, proactive connotation. The form elkötelezettséggel expresses the manner in which an action is performed, meaning “with commitment” or “with dedication.”

Morphology and usage: elkötelezettség is formed from kötelezettség (obligation, duty) with the prefix el-; the suffix -ség creates an abstract noun. The instrumental suffix -vel/-val marks the means or manner, so elkötelezettséggel is typically attached to verbs to describe how an action is carried out. For example, dolgozik elkötelezettséggel (works with commitment), vezeti elkötelezettséggel (leads with commitment).

Contexts and nuance: elkötelezettséggel is common in formal, organizational, and public-language contexts, including corporate communications, project descriptions, and civic discourse. It signals a positive attitude toward duties, tasks, or causes and often accompanies descriptions of work ethic, responsibility, or leadership infused with dedication.

Examples: A szervezet elkötelezettséggel törekszik a fenntarthatóságra. A vezető elkötelezettséggel irányította a projektet. These illustrate using the expression to attribute committed conduct to people or organizations.
