Leképezve

Leképezve is a Hungarian past participle form derived from leképezni, a verb meaning to depict, render, or map. In ordinary usage, leképezve can function as an adjective describing something that has been depicted or represented, or as a non-finite form indicating that the depiction has been completed. It is commonly found in technical, scientific, and descriptive prose, where processes of translation or transformation into a representation are discussed.

Etymology and grammar help explain its sense. The prefix le- often conveys completion or the act of rendering, while képez relates to kép, image or representation. Combined, leképezni conveys the action of producing a representation, and leképezve denotes the resulting state of having that representation.

Usage and domains. The term is prevalent in cartography, data visualization, computer graphics, and information design, where datasets, spatial information, or scenes are described as leképezve on a map, chart, or visual model. It also appears in humanities and media studies to describe how scenes or phenomena are rendered into images or narrative representations. In many cases, leképezve conveys a factual or technical sense of depiction, rather than a purely artistic one.

Relation to related terms. Leképezés (the process of rendering or mapping) and leképező (rendering or mapping) are closely related. They are contrasted with other Hungarian terms for representation, such as ábrázolás, which emphasizes depiction in a broader sense, and vizualizáció, which stresses visual presentation.
