csökkenését

Csökkenését is a Hungarian word form derived from the noun csökkenés, meaning decrease or reduction. The base noun csökkenés is formed from the verb csökkenni (to decrease) with the nominalizing suffix -és. The form csökkenését represents a specific grammatical function: it is the definite-direct-object form of “its decrease” or “the decrease of something,” used when the decrease is a definite object of a verb and a determiner or possessive is involved.

In Hungarian syntax, csökkenését is built by attaching a possessive suffix to csökkenés (to yield csökkenése, “its decrease”) and then adding the definite-object suffix -t (or -et, depending on vowel harmony) to indicate a definite direct object. For example: A grafikon a csökkenését mutatja, which translates to “The graph shows its decrease.” The form thus encodes both possession and definiteness, and it functions like a noun phrase acting as the object of a verb.

Usage-wise, csökkenését appears in formal or technical writing where a specific decrease is being discussed or quantified, such as in economics, statistics, epidemiology, or climatology. It helps to specify that the decrease belongs to a particular entity and is being treated as a definite, measurable phenomenon.
