Megadásával

Megadásával is the instrumental form of the noun megadás in Hungarian, meaning by surrendering or through surrender. It indicates the means, manner, or circumstance by which an action occurs and is commonly used in formal, descriptive, or legal-journalistic contexts.

The base noun megadás comes from the verb megadni (to surrender, to hand over) and the nominalizing suffix -ás. The instrumental suffix -val/-vel is added in the form -ával/-ével, yielding megadásával. The construction functions to attribute an outcome to the act of surrender.

In usage, megadásával is typically employed to describe how something happened or what caused a change, especially regarding political or military events, law enforcement, or negotiations. It answers questions about the means by which an event occurred.

Examples:

- A gyanúsított megadásával megindult a nyomozás. (With the suspect's surrender, the investigation began.)

- A hadsereg megadásával véget ért a harc. (With the surrender of the army, the fighting ended.)

Notes:

The phrase usually has a subject performing the surrender, and it emphasizes the surrender as the means of subsequent developments. In everyday speech, other expressions may be used to convey similar ideas, but megadásával remains a standard form when focusing on the act of surrender as a factor in an event.
