Információi

Információi is a Hungarian word formed from the noun információ (information) and a possessive suffix. It is used to indicate information that belongs to or is associated with a particular subject, such as a person, organization, or other entity. In Hungarian, possession is expressed by attaching suffixes to the possessed noun, and the exact form depends on the possessor and number.

The form információi commonly appears in phrases where the information in question is attributed to a third party or to a collective subject. For example, it can occur in constructions like Az információi szerint, meaning "according to its information" or "according to their information," and in sentences such as A vállalat információi a jelentésben szerepelnek, meaning "The company's information appears in the report." Because információ is often treated as a mass noun, speakers may prefer other constructions when referring to information in a more general sense.

Etymology and usage context: információ originates from information in other languages, with the Hungarian form adapting the root to fit Hungarian morphology. The suffix -i is a common part of possessive and adjectival formations, and információi is most common in written or formal Hungarian when indicating possession or source of information.

Relation to broader concepts: While információi marks possession, the general concept of information in Hungarian is typically expressed with információ or információk (plural), depending on whether the reference is to information as a mass entity or to multiple items. The possessive form információi adds a layer of attribution, linking the information to its owner or source.
