beszédért

Beszédért is a Hungarian compound formed from the noun beszéd (speech) and the postpositional suffix -ért, which marks benefit, purpose, or reward. The expression functions as a for-phrase, roughly translating to “for the speech” or “for the sake of the speech” in English, depending on context.

Formation and function: The suffix -ért attaches directly to the noun stem, creating an adverbial-like phrase that answers questions such as “for what?” or “for whom?” It is commonly used in contexts involving compensation, reward, or justification. It is not a separate verb form, but a bound morpheme that signals the relation between the speech and another action or evaluation.

Usage examples: A typical constructor is with verbs of giving or awarding, as in A beszédért díjat kapott, meaning “He received a prize for the speech.” The phrase can also appear in contexts where a speech is the reason or justification for an action, though the exact meaning depends on surrounding verbs and nouns.

Notes: -ért expresses benefit or reward and is often contrasted with other Hungarian case or postpositional suffixes that indicate different relations (such as accompaniment or location). In English, translating beszédért requires attention to nuance: it may be rendered as “for the speech,” “for giving the speech,” or “for the sake of the speech,” depending on the sentence.
