bejáratnál

Bejáratnál is a Hungarian locative expression formed from the noun bejárat (entrance) plus the locative suffix -nál. It means “at the entrance” or “by the entrance” and is used to indicate a static location relative to the entrance of a building, room, or area.

Grammatical notes: The suffix -nál marks location at a reference point and agrees with the noun in number and definiteness. When used with a definite noun, it becomes a clear phrase such as a bejáratnál (the entrance). It can accompany verbs such as található (is located) or vár (is waiting). It describes places or objects that are near or at the entrance, not movements toward the entrance (which would use -hoz, -hez, or -höz).

Usage examples:

A bejáratnál vár a vendég. (The guest is waiting at the entrance.)

A jegypénztár a bejáratnál található. (The ticket office is located by the entrance.)

A tábla a bejáratnál olvasható. (The sign is readable at the entrance.)

Relation to related terms: Bejárat is the base word meaning entrance. The suffix -hoz denotes direction toward the entrance (movement), while -nál denotes location at or by the entrance. The expression is common in signage, orientation, and descriptive text about locations.
