Népességhez

Népességhez is the allative form of the Hungarian noun népesség, meaning population. It marks direction toward or relation to the population in a sentence and is used in formal language, statistics, policy texts, and discourse that concerns or targets a population group. The form is created by attaching the allative suffix to the base noun, and the exact variant (-hoz, -hez, -höz) follows Hungarian phonology; for népesség, the standard form is népességhez.

In Hungarian, the allative case expresses movement toward or addressing a recipient or target. Népességhez specifically denotes “to the population” and appears in contexts where actions, analyses, or communications are oriented at the population as a group. This form is common in official documents, public health materials, market research reports, and other texts that discuss or serve a population.

Usage examples include:

- A kampány közvetlenül a népességhez szólt. (The campaign spoke directly to the population.)

- A felmérés a népességhez kapcsolódó adatokra épül. (The survey builds on data related to the population.)

- A program a népességhez igazított szolgáltatásokat kínál. (The program offers services tailored to the population.)
