Kiemeltségére

Kiemeltségére is a Hungarian word form that derives from the adjective kiemelt, meaning “highlighted” or “emphasized.” By adding the nominal suffix –ség, the adjective is turned into the noun kiemeltség, which denotes the state or quality of being emphasized. The added locative suffix –re (the stressed “re” marking a dative or locative case) then creates kiemeltségére, literally “to the emphasis” or “to the highlighted quality.” In practice, the term is used to refer to the situation or circumstance in which something is particularly emphasized within a text, conversation, or context.

The construction is a typical example of how Hungarian nominal and case suffixes combine to create nuanced expressions. The base adjective kiemelt is itself formed from the prefix ki-, meaning “out” or “outside,” and the root emel, a root verb meaning “to lift.” Thus, kiemelt originally indicated something that has been lifted out for attention. When this form is converted to a noun and combined with the locative suffix, the resulting word describes the abstract “act” or “property of being highlighted.”

In written Hungarian, kiemeltségére can appear in formal prose, academic articles, and editorial commentary where the writer wishes to point out that a particular element is distinguished because of its emphasis. For example: “A szerző kiemeltségére hívja a figyelmet a téma szimbolikájára” translates as “The author draws attention to the symbolism of the topic by emphasizing it.” The phrase is relatively uncommon outside of literary or stylistic contexts, but it represents a useful, precise way to discuss emphasis within the Hungarian language.
