Kapacitásban

Kapacitásban is the inessive form of the Hungarian noun kapacitás, meaning capacity. It is used to indicate being inside, within, or under the constraints of capacity, and can appear in both literal and figurative senses. In English, it corresponds to phrases like “in capacity” or “within capacity limits,” depending on context.

In Hungarian grammar, kapacitás is a substantive noun, and the inessive suffix -ban/-ben attaches to form kapacitásban. This form expresses location or scope related to capacity, for example when describing a status, constraint, or domain defined by capacity. It can be combined with possessors to denote capacity belonging to something, as in kapacitásban lévő szervezeti korlátok, though more common collocations involve contexts like production, storage, or resource limits.

Common usage occurs in business, engineering, and planning discourse. For instance, the expression a gyár kapacitásban van is used to say that the factory is operating at full capacity. In planning contexts, beszélhetünk a kapacitásban rejlő lehetőségekről to refer to opportunities within the available capacity. Figuratively, kapacitásban can describe the scope of a system or organization limited by its capacity.

Etymology traces kapacitás to the Latin capacitas, via historical borrowing into Hungarian. The form kapacitásbirtoklása or kapacitásalapú kifejezések reflect related semantic fields such as capacity planning and capacity utilization, commonly discussed in logistics, manufacturing, and infrastructure studies.
