Mélységben

Mélységben is a Hungarian adverbial expression formed from the noun mélység (depth) with the inessive suffix -ben, meaning “in the depth” or “in depth.” It can denote physical location at a considerable depth or be used figuratively to express depth, extent, or complexity. Grammatically, mélységben functions as an adverbial phrase and typically answers the question hol? (where?). It attaches to a noun in the inessive case, as in a tó mélységében (in the depths of the lake) or a tenger mélységében (in the depths of the sea). It can also be used more broadly to mean “in depth” when discussing topics, for example mélységben vizsgálni egy kérdést (to examine a question in depth).

Common uses:

- Physical depth: a tó mélységében, a tenger mélységében.

- Figurative depth: a jelenségek mélységében (in the depths/profound levels of phenomena), mélységben rejlő kérdések (questions lurking in depth).

Relation to related terms:
