Porhoz

Porhoz is a form in Hungarian grammar representing the allative case of the noun por, meaning dust. It denotes movement toward or targeting of dust and is used to indicate direction in phrases where the dust is the intended reference point.

Morphology and formation: In Hungarian, destination or direction markers are expressed with suffixes such as -hoz, -hez, or -höz. The choice among these forms follows vowel harmony and the final vowel of the stem. For the simple noun por, which ends with a back vowel (o), the allative form is porhoz.

Usage and nuances: Porhoz functions as a grammatical form rather than as a standalone lexical item. It appears in sentences where the action is directed toward dust or when dust is figuratively the object of reference. In most everyday speech, the form is encountered in specific constructions, poetic language, or linguistic discussion about Hungarian morphology.
