folyamatába

Folyamatába is the illative form of the Hungarian noun folyamat (process), meaning “into the process.” In Hungarian, the illative case marks movement toward or entry into a location, state, or activity, including abstract notions such as a process. The form is used when the speaker wants to indicate that an actor enters, becomes involved in, or is incorporated into that process.

As a grammatical form, folyamatába is one instance of the illative construction in Hungarian. It is typically used with phrases that describe entering or participating in a process, such as investigations, procedures, or decision-making sequences. Common contexts include legal, administrative, scientific, and organizational discourse, where speakers talk about someone or something being drawn into or joining a particular process.

Example usage (illustrative, not exhaustively):

- A döntéshozatal folyamatába került, amikor új információk érkeztek. (They entered the decision-making process when new information arrived.)

- A vizsgálat folyamatába bekapcsolódtak a külső tanúk. (External witnesses became involved in the investigation process.)

Folyamatába thus functions as the illative form used to express entry into a process, and it belongs to the broader set of Hungarian noun cases used to convey direction and involvement. See also illative case, folyamat, and Hungarian grammar references for related forms and rules.
