dolgoktól

Dolgoktól is a Hungarian word form meaning “from the things” or “from matters.” It is created from the noun dolog (thing, matter) in its plural form dolgok, plus the postposition -tól, which marks origin or source. The resulting dolgoktól is used to indicate where something originates or to set a distance—literal or figurative—from the matters in question.

Grammatical notes: In Hungarian, the postposition -tól expresses origin or starting point, and it is combined with the plural stem dolgok to form dolgoktól. The phrase is typically part of larger constructions that describe relationships of source, influence, or separation. It can appear in idiomatic or formal styles and is often found in expressions that contrast or set boundaries with “matters” or “things.”

Usage and examples: The phrase is commonly encountered in expressions such as dolgoktól függetlenül, meaning “independently of the matters” or “regardless of what things are involved.” For example, a sentence might state that a decision was made dolgoktól függetlenül, underscoring that it was made independently of external factors. Another use is in broader noun phrases such as dolgoktól való elhatárolódás, meaning detachment or separation from the matters.

Context and note: Dolgoktól operates within the ordinary Hungarian system of postpositions that convey origin, distance, or condition. Its exact meaning depends on the accompanying verbs or adjectives and on whether it appears in fixed expressions or more flexible, descriptive contexts.
