Unióval

Unióval is a Hungarian instrumental form meaning “with the Union.” It is formed from the noun Unió (Union) plus the instrumental suffix -val, and is used to indicate accompaniment, cooperation, or association with a union—such as a labor union or a supranational body like the European Union. In contemporary usage, it frequently appears in political, administrative, and legal contexts to express actions taken in partnership with a union.

Grammar and origin: Unió is derived from Latin unio via Hungarian, and the suffix -val follows Hungarian vowel harmony rules to form the instrumental case. The form Unióval is used when the base word ends in a back vowel (ó). As a grammatical construction, it is not a proper name for a specific organization; rather, it denotes the relationship “with the Union.”

Examples: A government press release might read, “A kormány az Unióval való együttműködést sürgeti.” In references to the European Union, writers typically use “az Európai Unióval,” as in “Az Európai Unióval folytatott tárgyalások gyorsítását célozza.” The phrase is common in political, administrative, and legal texts, describing actions conducted in collaboration with a union. Note: Unióval is a grammatical form, not a standalone organization name.
