Kedveztlenebb

Kedveztlenebb is not a standard Hungarian word. It is not found in reputable dictionaries and is generally considered a misspelling or nonstandard form. The form resembles two correct comparative constructions: kedvetlenebb and kedvezőtlenebb, which have distinct meanings.

The standard adjective kedvetlen means lacking enthusiasm or motivation. Its correct comparative form is kedvetlenebb, used to describe someone or something as more unenthusiastic than another reference point. The noun-based root kedvező means favorable, and its opposite kedvezőtlen yields the comparative kedvezőtlenebb, used for more unfavorable or adverse conditions. Kedveztlenebb does not follow regular Hungarian derivation and its intended meaning is ambiguous, making it unreliable in formal writing.

In practice, if a writer intends to express increasing lack of enthusiasm, kedvetlenebb should be used. If the intention is to describe something as more unfavorable, kedvezőtlenebb is appropriate. Examples: A vezető beszéde után a csapat kedvetlenebb lett. A gazdasági előrejelzések kedvezőtlenebbnek tűntek a jelentés szerint.

Summary: kedveztlenebb is considered nonstandard. For clear communication, use kedvetlenebb for “more unenthusiastic” and kedvezőtlenebb for “more unfavorable.” Related terms include kedvetlen, kedvetlenebb, kedvezőtlen, and kedvezőtlenebb.
