Falának

Falának is a Hungarian grammatical form meaning “the wall’s” or “of the wall.” It is used to indicate possession in phrases where the wall belongs to or is associated with another noun, typically in a third-person possessive construction. In such phrases the noun fala (the wall) receives its own possessive inflection, and falának surfaces as the form that links to a following attribute or clause.

In practice, falának appears in contexts such as describing characteristics of a wall that belongs to something else. For example:

- A ház falának színe zöld. Translation: The color of the house’s wall is green.

- A torony falának repedései láthatók. Translation: Cracks in the tower’s wall are visible.

- A falának vastagsága fontos a felújításnál. Translation: The wall’s thickness is important for the renovation.

Notes on use:

-falának is part of a larger possessive chain. The possessor (often a noun in the preceding phrase, such as ház, torony, stb.) marks ownership, while falának marks the wall as the possessed item within that chain.

- The exact meaning depends on context, but common translations include “the wall’s …” or “the wall of X.”
