címem

Címem is the Hungarian possessive form of cím, a word with two common meanings: an address or location used for mail and visitation, and a title or heading of a work. The phrase címem literally means “my address” or “my title,” depending on which sense of cím is intended in the sentence. It is formed by attaching the first-person singular possessive suffix -em to the noun stem.

In everyday Hungarian, címem is most frequently used to refer to one’s address. For example, Az én címem Budapesten van (My address is in Budapest). The phrase can also appear in constructions involving sending or receiving mail, such as Kérlek, küldd a levelet a címemre (Please send the letter to my address).

The word cím carries another basic meaning: a title or heading of a book, article, or other work. In that sense, a similar possessive construction would discuss ownership of a designation, though in ordinary usage the more common expression for a work’s title is simply cím or a cím a mű címe.

Morphology and usage notes:

- címem denotes “my address” or, less commonly, “my title” when the context makes the sense clear.

- When the phrase acts as a direct object or after certain prepositions, Hungarian uses standard case forms (not all details are shown here to avoid confusion).

Overall, címem is a practical example of how Hungarian forms possessive pronouns with common nouns, especially in contexts involving location and contact information. See also cím, cím (disambiguation).
