Recallként

Recallként is a coined term used in Hungarian-language discussions of memory, discourse analysis, and related cognitive sciences. The word blends the English noun recall with the Hungarian suffix -ként, which indicates a role or manner, roughly translating to “as recall” or “in the manner of recall.” The term is not widely standardized and appears primarily in niche scholarly or online contexts.

In use, recallként generally refers to a framing or device that treats information as something to be retrieved from memory rather than simply presented or recognized. In discourse analysis, it can describe rhetorical or instructional strategies that prompt audiences to recall prior facts, experiences, or statements. In cognitive psychology and memory research, the label may be applied to experimental conditions that emphasize free recall or cued recall tasks rather than recognition tasks. In information design, recallként can describe prompts or cues designed to trigger memory retrieval, thereby shaping user interaction and engagement.

Etymology and status: recallként is a recent, informal formation rather than an established technical term. It reflects cross-linguistic influence and the growing blending of memory-theoretic concepts with rhetorical and design discussions in Hungarian writing. Because it is not widely adopted, its precise definition and scope can vary by author or field.
