Névjegyzékének

Névjegyzékének is a Hungarian possessive form derived from the noun névjegyzék, which denotes a directory or list of names, commonly used for contact lists, address books, or registers. The base névjegyzék combines the words név (name) and jegyzék (list or register). The suffix -ének is a third-person singular possessive ending used to indicate that the directory belongs to someone or something, producing a phrase that translates roughly as “of his/her/its directory” or “the directory belonging to X.”

In usage, névjegyzékének appears in contexts where possession is attributed to a specific possessor, such as a company, individual, or organization. For example: A cég névjegyzékének frissítése szükséges. (Updating the company’s directory is necessary.) A felhasználó névjegyzékének adatvédelme kiemelten fontos. (The user’s address book data protection is particularly important.)

The term is commonly found in formal, administrative, or legal writing, especially when discussing management, privacy, or data handling of lists of names. It can be contrasted with other forms like névjegyzék (the directory) or with possessives referring to other possessors, such as a company’s or a person’s directory.

Etymology notes: névjegyzékény is built from név (name) and jegyzék (list), with -ének functioning as a third-person singular possessive suffix in Hungarian. See also névjegyzék, címjegyzék, adatvédelem, és regiszter.
