Stabilitástól

Stabilitástól is a Hungarian postpositional phrase meaning “from stability.” It is formed from stabilitás (stability) and the elative suffix -tól, which marks origin or a starting point. In Hungarian, phrases built with -tól are used to indicate where something comes from or what baseline conditions are being referenced.

The term itself does not denote a separate lexical item with a standalone meaning; rather, it functions as part of larger expressions that anchor discussion to a stable condition or baseline. It appears most commonly in formal, technical, or analytical prose, where researchers or analysts specify that observations, results, or decisions derive from, or should be interpreted against, stable conditions.

Common constructions include stabilitástól függően (depending on stability), stabilitástól számítva (calculated from stability or as of the stability baseline), and stabilitástól függetlenül (independently of stability). These forms help clarify how conclusions may change with different stability assumptions or how a baseline influences interpretation.

Examples:

- A kísérleti eredmények stabilitástól függően változtak. (The experimental results varied depending on stability.)

- Stabilitástól számítva a mérési értékek megbízhatóbbnak bizonyultak. (Taking stability as the baseline, the measurement values proved more reliable.)

- Stabilitástól függetlenül a döntést meg kellett hozni. (Regardless of stability, the decision had to be made.)
