Hosszúságtól

Hosszúságtól is a Hungarian word that translates to "from length" or "by length". It is a grammatical form used in Hungarian to indicate that something is measured, determined, or characterized by its length. This form is derived from the noun "hosszúság," meaning "length."

The suffix "-tól" is a postposition in Hungarian that signifies separation from or origin. When attached to "hosszúság," it creates a locative or instrumental sense related to the concept of length. For example, in a sentence, "hosszúságtól függően" would mean "depending on the length." Here, the "hosszúságtól" indicates that the dependency is based on the measurement of length.

Another common usage might be in contexts describing a process or a result that is a direct consequence of a specific length. While a direct English equivalent like "from length" might sound awkward in isolation, the Hungarian usage provides a precise grammatical construction. It is part of the rich system of suffixes and postpositions that allow Hungarian to express complex grammatical relationships without the need for prepositions common in many other languages. The word itself is a testament to the agglutinative nature of the Hungarian language, where grammatical functions are often indicated by adding suffixes to root words.
