Elnevezéseként

Elnevezéseként is a grammatical form derived from elnevezés, meaning designation or naming. It is formed by attaching the suffix -ként to the noun in a way that signals “as the designation” or “in the capacity of the designation.” The construction is used to indicate that something is being referred to by a particular name in a formal or analytic context. In practice, elnevezéseként appears in scholarly, technical, or administrative writing when discussing the name assigned to a person, organism, concept, or object.

Grammatical notes: The suffix -ként expresses role or function, similar to “as” in English. When applied to elnevezés, the form can take different internal variants depending on number and syntax. The singular, more common counterpart is elnevezésként, used when speaking of a single designation. The plural form elnevezéseként may occur when the discussion centers on designations that exist as a set or when the context treats the designation itself as one element among several possibilities. Both forms are accepted in Hungarian, with usage guided by number and emphasis.

Usage: The term is predominantly found in linguistic descriptions, taxonomy, legal or administrative texts, and encyclopedic or descriptive writing. It helps to frame how a name is used or assigned, distinguishes between different possible designations, and clarifies which naming convention is being referenced in a given passage.

Example: Az új faj elnevezéseként a latin Rosa canina nevet javasolták. This sentence shows the function of elnevezéseként by presenting the Latin designation as the designated name for the species.
