Teljeshez

Teljeshez is a Hungarian word that translates to "to the whole" or "completely" in English. It is a grammatical form used in the Hungarian language, specifically as a postposition. When attached to a noun or pronoun, "teljeshez" indicates that something is directed towards, related to, or pertains to the entirety of that entity.

For example, if one were to say "a család teljeshez ragaszkodik" (which is grammatically incorrect in this form but illustrates the concept), it would conceptually mean "sticks to the whole family." A more correct construction might be seen in phrases where "teljes" functions as an adjective modifying a noun, and then "hez" is the postposition. For instance, "a whole thing" would be "a teljes dolog," and if something were directed towards it, a phrase could be constructed using the base noun and "teljeshez" indirectly.

In practice, "teljeshez" is less commonly encountered as a standalone postposition attached directly to a noun in everyday speech. Instead, the concept of "to the whole" is often expressed through different grammatical structures or by using the adjective "teljes" in conjunction with other postpositions depending on the specific nuance required. The root of the word, "teljes," means "complete," "full," or "entire." The "-hez" ending is a dative case marker indicating direction or towards. Therefore, "teljeshez" literally signifies a movement or relation directed at something in its entirety.
