Meghiúsulásakor

Meghiúsulásakor is a Hungarian temporal expression meaning “in the event of failure” or “upon failure.” It is used to indicate what happens if a plan, project, or procedure does not proceed as intended. The term functions as a temporal adverbial form and is common in formal, contractual, or procedural texts to describe consequences, conditions, or steps that activate only when failure occurs.

Etymology and form: The word is built from meghiúsulás, the noun meaning failure or thwarting, derived from the verb meghiúsulni (to fail). The nominalizing suffix -ás turns it into a noun, and the time-marking suffix -kor yields meghiúsuláskor, literally “at the time of the failure” or “upon failure.” As a single word, it acts as a temporal connector in sentences.

Usage and style: It is most often encountered in legal, contractual, regulatory, or procedural language to frame clauses contingent on failure. It can introduce a sentence or clause that sets forth actions to be taken if a plan does not succeed, without requiring an explicit if-clause in every instance. For example, meghiúsulásakor a finanszírozás kérdése felülvizsgálatra kerül. In such uses, the term provides precision about timing and obligation.
