Zsákmányból

Zsákmányból is a Hungarian adverbial prepositional phrase formed from the noun zsákmány, meaning loot, booty, or prey, plus the suffix -ból, meaning “from.” The phrase denotes origin: something that comes from the spoils of battle, raid, hunting, or other expeditions. It is used in historical, military, maritime, and literary contexts, and can also appear in figurative language to indicate something obtained as spoils.

Grammar and usage: zsákmány is a common noun, and zsákmányból is the standard form meaning “from the loot.” It functions as an origin complement and can modify nouns or support verbs of designation, distribution, or derivation. Examples include: A harcosok a zsákmányból osztották ki a részüket. (The warriors distributed their share from the loot.) A zsákmányból származó aranyról szól a történet. (The story is about the gold derived from the loot.)

Etymology and scope: The word zsákmány is part of native Hungarian vocabulary, and -ból is a typical postpositional suffix marking origin. The expression zsákmányból is common in historical narratives, folk literature, and modern reporting when describing spoils or loot, and can also appear in metaphorical or symbolic uses to denote something obtained as spoils rather than produced.
