címerrel

címerrel is the instrumental case form of the Hungarian noun címer, meaning a coat of arms or heraldic device. The instrumental suffix -rel indicates accompaniment or means, so címerrel translates as “with a coat of arms” or “bearing a coat of arms.” It is used in descriptions of objects that display heraldic emblems, such as documents, seals, flags, buildings, or insignia. In everyday and official language it often appears in phrases like címerrel díszített (decorated with a coat of arms) or címerrel ellátott (equipped with a coat of arms). For example: a címerrel díszített zászló (the flag adorned with a coat of arms) or az okirat címerrel ellátott (the document bearing a coat of arms).

The term is common in heraldic and administrative contexts, particularly when specifying that an item carries an official emblem. Related terms include címer (coat of arms) and címeres (heraldic, armorial). Etymology: it is formed from címer with the instrumental suffix -rel, following Hungarian vowel harmony. The concept reflects the historical and cultural significance of heraldry in Hungary, where coats of arms signified authority, family lineage, and institutional legitimacy on documents, buildings, seals, and insignia.
