Részét

Részét is a Hungarian noun phrase meaning “part of it” or “its share.” It derives from the noun rész (part) and is used with possessive and definite-object markers to indicate that a particular portion belongs to or is attributable to something else. The expression is most often found in forms such as valaminek a részét (the part of something) or egy részét (a part of), to refer to a specific portion of a whole.

Usage and meaning: Részét designates a definite portion of a larger whole. It is commonly used when the speaker wants to isolate or quantify a segment, rather than the whole. The term is distinct from related words such as részlet, which denotes an excerpt or fragment of text or a small piece in general, and from városrész, which means a district of a city. While rész covers the idea of “part,” és részét emphasizes the portion as a discrete object of discussion or action.

Usage tips: Use részét when you want to indicate a specific portion that is the object of the verb. It frequently follows a noun in a genitive construction or the indefinite marker egy, as in egy részét vagy a részét. The surrounding verb typically describes what is done to that portion, such as reading, completing, or allocating.

Examples: A könyv egy részét elolvastam. A projekt egy részét befejezték. A vállalat a termék piacának egy részét lefedte. A vezetőség ennek a csoportnak a részét képezi.
