Támogatását

Támogatását is a Hungarian noun form derived from támogatás, which means support, backing, or funding. It is the definite accusative form used when the noun denotes the direct object of a sentence and the possessed noun is being referred to. The base noun támogatas combines with the possessive suffix to yield forms such as támogatása (his/her/its support) and, with the definite accusative ending -t, támogatását (the [someone’s/its] support as a direct object). In contrast, támogatatás nélkül is ungrammatical; the distinction hinges on possession and the accusative marking.

Usage and nuances: The form is common in formal or official contexts, including legal, political, and policy writing, as well as news reporting on funding, endorsements, or sponsorships. It typically indicates whose support is being discussed and that the support itself is being acted upon or referenced as a tangible object within the sentence. The exact possessive is determined by the possessor (e.g., a kormány támogatását: the government’s support; a vállalat támogatását: the company’s support).

Examples:

- A kormány megígérte a vállalat támogatását. (The government promised the company’s support.)

- Megnövelték a szervezet támogatását. (They increased the organization’s support.)

- A pályázó a támogatását igényli. (The applicant requests its support.)
