Rendezként

Rendezként is a term primarily used in Hungarian to describe a type of informal gathering or meeting, often arranged spontaneously or with little prior planning. It can refer to a casual get-together with friends, a brief encounter in a public place, or even a more structured but still relaxed meeting between individuals. The core idea behind rendezként is the element of meeting up or coming together.

The term is a compound word, with "Rendez" deriving from the French word "rendez-vous," meaning an appointment or meeting. "ként" is a Hungarian suffix that translates roughly to "as" or "in the capacity of." Therefore, rendezként literally means "as a meeting" or "in the capacity of a meeting." This etymology highlights the essence of the word – the act of meeting itself, often with a sense of purpose, however informal.

In practice, rendezként can be used in various contexts. For instance, friends might agree to have a rendezként at a café to catch up. A business professional might have a quick rendezként with a colleague to discuss a minor issue. It's also common to hear about a rendezként for a specific event, like a concert or a party, where people agree to meet at a designated spot beforehand. The context usually clarifies the nature and formality of the meeting. It implies a mutual agreement to connect, regardless of the specific circumstances.
