Megelzésre

Megelzésre is a Hungarian term used in linguistic and policy contexts to denote the purpose or aim of relief or alleviation actions. It roughly translates to "for relief" or "for alleviation," formed from the noun megelzés (relief/alleviation) combined with the postpositional suffix -re, which marks purpose or orientation.

Etymology and form: The term is built by the noun megelzés plus -re. As with other -re forms in Hungarian, it describes the intended outcome of a policy or activity. It functions as a nominal phrase indicating the aim of measures rather than describing the measures themselves.

Usage: In formal documents, megelzésre is used to describe interventions designed to relieve a burden, such as social, economic, or environmental distress. Example: "megelzésre irányuló intézkedések" means relief-oriented measures. It appears primarily in academic or governmental discourse and is less common in everyday language. The term can be contrasted with megelőzés (prevention) and enyhítés (alleviation), depending on the nuance of the policy goal.

Examples:

- A kormány megelzésre irányuló intézkedéseket vezet be a lakhatási válság enyhítésére. (The government is introducing relief-oriented measures to alleviate the housing crisis.)

- A segélyszervezetek megelzésre irányuló programokat koordinálnak a természeti katasztrófák után. (Charitable organizations coordinate relief-oriented programs after natural disasters.)
