Tervezve

Tervezve is a Hungarian term formed from the verb tervezni (to design, to plan) and the suffix -va/-ve, functioning as the past passive participle. It denotes that something has been designed or planned and can be used as a participle adjective or within a participial phrase. In Hungarian grammar, tervezve can describe a noun or appear in finite clauses as part of a predicate, often in formal or technical contexts.

The word is closely related to tervezés (design, planning) and tervező (designer). While tervezve signals a completed design or planned state, the attributive form tervezett is more common in everyday language when describing a plan or design directly. Tervezve tends to appear in descriptive phrases or statements that emphasize the state resulting from design or the process of planning, particularly in technical documentation, specifications, or reports.

Etymologically, tervezve shares its root with other verbs in the tervez- family and demonstrates Hungarian’s productive use of the -va/-ve participle formation to create past passive participles. Translations into English include “designed” or “planned,” depending on context. Related terms to explore include terv (plan), tervezés (design, planning), and tervező (designer).
