hormonellem

Hormonellem is a grammatical form tied to the German adjective hormonell, which means relating to hormones. It is not a separate scientific term or concept, but a declined form that occurs as part of a phrase in which the adjective modifies a noun in the dative case.

In German, adjectives inflect according to case, gender and number, as well as the type of determiner used. The form hormonellem appears in contexts where the noun is in the dative case and the surrounding determiner requires that ending. The precise ending chosen (for example hormonellem versus hormonellen) depends on the noun’s gender, number, and the determiner (definite or indefinite). As such, hormonellem is one of several inflected variants of hormonell that can appear in fluent usage, particularly in technical or medical prose.

Meaning and usage. The underlying meaning of the base adjective remains unchanged: it describes something related to hormones or the hormonal system. In texts about endocrinology, physiology, or medicine, hormonell-related phrases are common, including descriptors of hormonal balance, hormonal changes, or hormonal influence. The specific form hormonellem serves a grammatical function, helping to integrate the adjective into grammatically correct sentences.

Relation to terminology. Hormonell is the standard adjective; hormonellem is a grammatical form used in correct syntax. The term does not designate a unique field, theory, or entity by itself, but rather a word form used within German-language discussions of hormonal topics.
