Mellékelem

Mellékelem is a Hungarian word that translates to "I am attaching" or "attached herewith" in English. It is commonly used in formal and semi-formal written communication, particularly in emails and letters, when referring to a document or file that is being sent along with the main message. The word is derived from the verb "mellékel," which means to attach or enclose.

When a sender writes "mellékelem" followed by the name of a document, they are indicating that the recipient should expect to find that document as an attachment. For instance, a common phrase might be "A jelentést mellékelem" (I am attaching the report). This usage is crucial for clarity and ensures that the recipient understands what supplementary information is being provided.

The word "mellékelem" is most frequently encountered in business correspondence, academic settings, and official communications. It signifies a polite and standard way to indicate the presence of accompanying materials. While a direct translation is "I am attaching," the contextual meaning often implies a completed action of sending something alongside. The use of "mellékelem" is a subtle but important aspect of Hungarian written communication etiquette.
