Megoldásnak

Megoldásnak is the dative singular form of the Hungarian noun megoldás, meaning “solution” or “the act of solving.” The form is used when the noun denotes an indirect object or a predicative complement in clauses that require the dative case, or in phrases that translate as “as a solution” or “for the solution.”

Grammatical role and formation: Megoldásnak is formed by adding the dative suffix -nak to megoldás. Because the stem contains back vowels, the suffix is -nak rather than -nek, in accordance with Hungarian vowel harmony. The plural would be megoldásoknak. In sentences, megoldásnak often appears after verbs that take a dative complement, such as tekinteni (to consider), számít (to count as), or minősíteni (to classify as).

Usage examples:

- Ezt a megoldást tekintik megoldásnak. (They consider this a solution.)

- Ez megoldásnak számít. (This counts as a solution.)

- Ezt megoldásnak minősítik. (They classify this as a solution.)

Semantics and collocations: The expression is common in formal or technical Hungarian, particularly in discussions of problems, proposals, or methods where a particular approach is evaluated as a possible solution. It often appears in academic, administrative, or policy-related contexts.

Etymology: The word megoldás derives from the verb megoldani, meaning “to solve” or “to resolve,” with the nominal suffix -ás. The combination with the dative suffix -nak yields megoldásnak, the form used in indirect-object or predicative constructions.
