Felidézéséhez

Felidézéséhez is a form derived from the verb felidéz, meaning to recall or evoke. The noun felidézés denotes recollection or evocation—the act of bringing something back to mind or producing it in imagination. The suffix -éhez is a possessive-dative ending that attaches to the noun to indicate the target or purpose of the action, i.e., “to/for the recollection.” Thus felidézéséhez literally means “for the recollection” or “to aid the recollection,” and is used to connect the act of recalling to a following clause or requirement.

Semantics-wise, felidézés can refer to cognitive processes as well as to rhetorical or artistic evocation. In psychology and memory studies it denotes memory retrieval, the act of recalling specific details or scenes from the past. In literature, film, or speech it can describe techniques that evoke past atmospheres, events, or memories to shape meaning or mood.

Usage-wise, the form felidézéséhez appears in phrases that specify prerequisites or aims of recollection, for example: “A felidézéséhez szükséges információk összegyűjtése” (the collection of information necessary for recollection). It is more common in formal or academic writing; in everyday language one would typically use felidéz or a simpler construction rather than the extended form with -éhez.
