energiím

Energiám is the Hungarian possessive form meaning “my energy.” It is not a separate lexical entry, but the inflected form of energia, the noun for energy. The word can refer to personal vitality or to energy in a physical or technical sense, depending on the context.

Morphology and usage

Energia is borrowed from Greek energeia, via Latin and other languages. In Hungarian, the possessive suffix -m is attached to the noun stem to signal ownership, producing energiám. The form inflects further for case and function in a sentence (for example as a definite direct object it can appear as energiamat). Common usages include statements about one’s energy level or about energy resources, such as “Energiám alacsony lett” (My energy has become low) or “Van energiám a következő edzésre” (I have energy for the next workout). Possessive forms may also appear with other case endings, e.g., energiámban (in my energy), energiámat (my energy as a definite object).

Distinction and related terms

Energiám emphasizes possession in everyday speech. In scientific or technical writing, energy is usually referred to by energia without a possessive form, as in a rendszer energiája (the system’s energy). Related terms include energia (energy), energiaszint (energy level), and energiahordozó (energy carrier). The possessive form energiám is common in personal or informal contexts about vitality or personal energy resources.

Etymology

The base energia originates from Greek energeia, meaning work in action or active force. The Hungarian language incorporated energia and, through regular inflection, produced forms such as energiám to express ownership.
