elrendelni

Elrendelni is a Hungarian verb meaning to issue an order or directive by an authority, to decree or mandate something to be done. It denotes that a formal decision has been made and commands are to be followed. The prefix el- adds a sense of official imposition, distinguishing it from more routine or advisory language.

Common contexts for elrendelni include governmental or institutional decisions, legal or administrative directives, and formal medical or logistical orders. For example, "A kormány elrendelte a kijárási tilalmat" means that a curfew was ordered by the government. In medical contexts, one can say "Az orvos elrendelte a vérvizsgálatot," indicating that a test or procedure has been ordered. In everyday speech, however, speakers more often use simpler verbs like rendel or felírni for prescriptions, reserving elrendelni for formal declarations or official mandates.

Grammatical notes and usage patterns: elrendelni is formed with the prefix el- added to the verb rendelni and follows the standard patterns of Hungarian -ni verbs, with tense and aspect encoded through suffixes and word order. In reporting or formal writing, past tense forms such as elrendelte or elrendelték are common when describing authorities issuing orders. The verb is typically transitive, governing the action to be performed or the order itself.
