Leállási

Leállási is the attributive adjective form in Hungarian derived from the noun leállás, which means shutdown, halt, or cessation of operation. The suffix -i creates a word meaning “relating to a shutdown” or “associated with stopping.” As such, leállási is used to form terms that describe aspects of a shutdown or halt in technical, industrial, or operational contexts.

Grammatical usage and examples: Leállási is placed before a noun to modify its meaning, for example leállási idő (shutdown downtime), leállási folyamat (shutdown process), or leállási mód (shutdown mode). The form agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case, and it functions as an adjective within compound terms derived from leállás.

Contexts and domain usage: The term is common in engineering, information technology, manufacturing, energy systems, and safety documentation, where it helps distinguish aspects related to stopping operations from other states of use. It can be used to describe planned shutdowns, unplanned stoppages, and the parameters or procedures associated with those events, such as leállási idő, leállási paraméterek, or leállási események.

Etymology and related terms: Leállási is built from the root leállás (stop, halt) plus the adjectival suffix -i. Related Hungarian terms include leállás (a halt or shutdown) and leállítás (the act of shutting down or deactivating). Together they form a spectrum of ways to discuss operational cessation in technical and formal writing.
