Sokasággal

Sokasággal is a Hungarian instrumental phrase derived from sokaság, meaning crowd or multitude, with the instrumental suffix -val/-vel, written as sokasággal. It is used to express that an action or event occurs with a large number of people or things, i.e., in great numbers or en masse. The expression functions as an adverbial modifier of manner or instrument, typically attached to verbs of arrival, participation, gathering, or presence. It emphasizes scale rather than a particular method.

Etymology and form: sokaság means crowd or multitude, formed from sok meaning many, with the abstract noun suffix -ság. The instrumental suffix -val/-vel attaches to the noun to indicate means or accompaniment, and in this case yields sokasággal.

Usage: The phrase is common in descriptive writing, journalism, and event reporting, where it is important to convey the size of a crowd or the extent of participation. It is usually used with plural subjects since the action is carried out by many people or items.

Examples:

- A rendezvényre sokasággal érkeztek a meghívott vendégek. (The invited guests arrived in large numbers for the event.)

- A városban sokasággal gyülekeztek össze a demonstrálók. (In the city, demonstrators gathered in large numbers.)

Notes: Sokasággal is a neutral, factual expression. It can describe crowds of people or large quantities of non-human elements when appropriate, but it is most natural about human presence or participation.
