Méretezve

Méretezve is a Hungarian term meaning scaled or resized. It is the past participle form of the verb méretezni, used to indicate that an object, drawing, or model has been produced at a specific scale rather than at its actual size. The word derives from méret (size, dimension) and the verb-forming suffix -ezni, with -ve marking the participle.

In technical contexts, méretezve is applied to drawings, plans, maps, models, and manufactured components to signal that their dimensions are proportional according to a defined scale. Common scales are expressed as ratios, such as 1:50 or 1:100, indicating how the listed measurements relate to real-world sizes. Examples: "A terv 1:50 arányban méretezve készült." "A modell 1:100 arányban méretezve van." Such usage helps ensure consistent communication across engineering, architecture, cartography, and fabrication.

Relation to related terms: méretezés refers to the process of applying a scale, while nagyítás and kicsinyítés refer to enlargement and reduction, respectively. Méretezve characterizes the result or state after scaling, rather than the act itself. Proper use depends on context, typically involving drawings, plans, or models prepared to a particular scale.
