Nyelvre

Nyelvre is a Hungarian directional form derived from the noun nyelv (language) with the suffix -re. The combination marks direction toward a language and is used in contexts related to translation, interpretation, or language-specific adaptation. In Hungarian grammar, the suffix -re (paired with -ra in many cases) expresses movement toward or onto something, and in this usage it specifies the target language.

In practice, nyelvre is most often found with language names or adjectives describing a language, such as angol nyelvre (to English), német nyelvre (to German), or magyar nyelvre (to Hungarian). The construction is common in phrases involving translation and localization, where the action is directed at a particular language. The language component is typically supplied by a modifier (e.g., angol, német) preceding nyelvre.

Examples:

- A szöveget angol nyelvre fordították. (The text was translated into English.)

- A kiadás angol nyelvre vonatkozó változata készült. (An English-language version of the edition was prepared.)

- A kurzus célja, hogy a hallgatók angol nyelvre összpontosítsanak. (The course aims to focus the students on English.)

Nyelvre therefore serves as a linguistic tool for indicating the target language in actions involving translation or linguistic adaptation. It is part of Hungarian’s broader system of directional suffixes and is most readily understood in the context of translation, localization, and language instruction.
