hangzásától

Hangzásától is a Hungarian grammatical construction formed from the noun hangzás (sound, timbre) with the possessive suffix -a- and the postposition -tól, meaning “from its sound.” The phrase is used to indicate the source, basis, or influence of a property, often in evaluative or descriptive statements. In translation, it can convey “depending on its sound” or “by virtue of its timbre,” depending on the context.

Formation and usage notes: Hangzás is first nominalized by the possessive suffix -a-, yielding hangzás-a, and the postposition -tól is attached to form hangzásától. As a postpositional phrase, it typically functions as an adverbial or dependent element in a clause, not as an independent noun. The construction commonly appears with verbs such as függ (depends), hatással van (has an effect on), vagy meghatározza (determines).

Examples:

- A termék megítélése a hangzásától függ. (The product’s assessment depends on its sound.)

- A reklám hatékonysága a hangzásától függhet. (The effectiveness of the advertisement may depend on its sound.)

- A felvétel minősége gyakran a hangzásától függ. (The quality of the recording often depends on its sound.)
