Elnyerését

Elnyerését is a Hungarian term related to the noun elnyerés, which denotes the act of obtaining, earning, or securing something—typically as a result of effort, competition, or formal process. The form elnyerését is an inflected variant used in contexts where the act of obtaining is treated as a definite direct object with a third-person possessor, reflecting Hungarian’s system of definite objects and possessive suffixes. In practice, elnyerését translates roughly to “its obtaining” or “the obtaining of it,” depending on the surrounding sentence.

Etymology and morphology: elnyerés derives from the verb elnyerni (to win, to gain, to procure) plus the noun-forming suffix -és. The suffix -ét attached to elnyerés marks a specific grammatical function in the sentence, indicating that the act of obtaining belongs to or concerns a definite noun. As a result, elnyerését typically appears in formal or technical language when the speaker refers to the act of obtaining something in a way that points to a particular object or entity.

Usage and context: the term is common in bureaucratic, legal, grant-writing, and historical contexts where the emphasis is on the process or outcome of obtaining a right, award, license, or similar prize. It is more abstract than concrete and is generally used to discuss procedures, criteria, or results rather than physical objects.
