Felvonója

Felvonója is a Hungarian term that translates to "his/her/its elevator" or "his/her/its lift" in English. It is a possessive form derived from the word "felvonó," which means elevator or lift. The "-ja" ending signifies the third-person singular possessive suffix, indicating that the elevator belongs to or is associated with a singular male, female, or neuter subject.

The word is commonly used in everyday conversation when referring to an elevator that is part of someone's property, such as a residential building they own or live in, or a public space they are associated with. For example, one might say "A felvonója nem működik" which translates to "His/her/its elevator is not working." The specific meaning of "his/her/its" would be understood from the context of the conversation.

While "felvonója" specifically denotes possession, the general term for an elevator in Hungarian is simply "felvonó." The possessive form is used to add a layer of specificity regarding ownership or association. The grammatical structure of Hungarian allows for the attachment of possessive suffixes directly to nouns, making terms like "felvonója" a concise way to express this relationship. The usage remains consistent across different grammatical cases when referring to the elevator in a possessive context.
