Tompítására

Tompítására is a Hungarian term used to express the purpose or aim of dulling or blunting something. It is formed from the noun tompítás (the act of dulling or blunting) plus the suffix -ára, which denotes purpose or intended use. The base verb is tompítani (to dull, blunt), and the resulting expression functions as a phrase indicating what something is for.

Etymology and function: The word derives from tompa meaning blunt, with the nominalizing suffix -ítás to form tompítás. The suffix -ára attaches to the noun to indicate purpose, a common pattern in Hungarian for linking objects or actions to their intended use. In practice, tompítására acts as a postnominal modifier that can accompany nouns or verb phrases to specify function.

Usage: Tompítására is most common in technical, industrial, and formal language. It appears in phrases such as tompítására szolgáló eszközök (tools designed for dulling), tompítására vonatkozó előírások (regulations concerning dulling), or as part of a clause describing the purpose of an action. It is not a standalone verb form; rather, it functions as a purposeful modifier or complement.

Examples:

- A felület tompítására szolgáló eljárásokat alkalmazzák.

- A gyártó a tompítására szolgáló eszközöket cserélte ki.

- Ez a dokumentum a tompítására vonatkozó előírásokat tartalmazza.

Translation note: In English, tompítására roughly corresponds to “for dulling” or “for the purpose of dulling,” and in some contexts can be rendered as “to dull” or “for the dulling of.”
