Futamonként

Futamonként is a Hungarian adverb meaning “per race” or “for each race.” It is used to express a rate, fee, or statistic that is tied to each race or heat in a competition. The word is formed from futam, meaning race or heat, with the suffix -onként, which denotes per unit. The form is invariable and does not change with number or gender.

In practical use, futamonként appears in sports administration, prize distributions, betting markets, and statistical reporting. It is often attached to a numeral or used in compounds such as futamonkénti díj (a fee per race) or futamonkénti jutalék (commission per race). For example: “A díjazás futamonként 2 000 forint” means “the prize is 2,000 forint per race.” Another example: “A jutalék futamonkénti összege 5 százalék” indicates a 5 percent commission per race.

Related terms include versenyenként (“per competition”) and kilométerenként (“per kilometer”), which use the same per-unit suffix concept with different bases.

Etymology: futamonként is formed from futam (race) plus -onként (per unit). The expression is standard in Hungarian and appears in both formal and sports contexts.
