beletartozik

Beletartozik is a Hungarian prefixed verb meaning to belong to or to be included in a larger whole. It expresses membership or inclusion within a group, category, system, or scope, emphasizing that something is a component rather than merely adjacent. The form combines the prefix be- with the verb tartozik (to belong).

Etymology and sense: The prefix be- in Hungarian often signals inclusion, insertion, or boundary-crossing, and when attached to tartozik it highlights that the subject is part of a defined set, collection, or domain. Beletartozik is used to describe whether something is within the bounds of a particular group, rule, or structure, rather than simply being related to it.

Usage: The term appears mainly in formal, descriptive, or bureaucratic language. It can refer to objects, responsibilities, roles, or components that are considered part of a defined domain such as an organization, a project, a legal framework, or a cultural collection. Sentences typically specify the domain into which the item is included, using appropriate case forms to express membership or inclusion.

Examples:

- Ez a tárgy beletartozik a gyűjteménybe.

- A feladat beletartozik a projekt keretében végzett munkák közé.
