Lakosságú

Lakosságú is a Hungarian suffix that translates to "populated by" or "having a population of." It is attached to nouns indicating a group or type of population to describe a place based on its inhabitants. For example, a city might be described as "magyar lakosságú," meaning "populated by Hungarians" or "Hungarian-populated." Similarly, a region could be "román lakosságú," indicating it is predominantly Romanian-populated.

The suffix is used to provide a demographic characteristic of a geographical area. It helps to understand the ethnic, national, or cultural composition of a community. For instance, "német lakosságú falu" would refer to a village with a German population. This grammatical construction is a concise way to convey information about the human element of a place. It is a common element in Hungarian descriptions of settlements and regions, offering a quick way to identify the primary demographic group residing there. The word itself is derived from "lakosság," meaning "population."
