becslésre

Becslésre is a Hungarian grammatical form derived from the noun becslés, which means estimation, appraisal, or assessment. The form is created by adding the suffix -re, which in Hungarian commonly marks purpose, target, or direction. Thus becslésre translates roughly to “for estimation” or “for an estimate.” It is a functional, not a separate lexical item, used to indicate that estimation is the intended object of an action or the required input for a process.

Morphology and usage notes: The -re suffix attaches to nouns to denote the purpose or the object of a needed action. In practice, becslésre appears in sentences where estimation is required or consulted, often with expressions such as “szükség van becslésre” (there is a need for an estimate) or “a döntés meghozatalához becslésre van szükség.” It is common in planning, budgeting, procurement, and project management contexts, where an estimate serves as a prerequisite or input.

Examples:

- A projekt becslésre van szüksége. (The project needs an estimate.)

- A döntés meghozatalához becslésre van szükség. (To make the decision, an estimate is required.)

- A költségterv elkészítéséhez becslésre van szükség. (An estimate is needed to prepare the cost plan.)

Relation and terminology: Becslés is the base noun in Hungarian for estimation. Related terms include becslő (estimator) and becslési (estimating, estimation-related). The form becslésre specifically signals the purpose or requirement of estimation rather than the act itself. In statistical contexts, becslés can also refer to an estimate derived from data, with becslésre appearing in phrases that describe the need or use of such estimates.
