jóváhagyatlan

jóváhagyatlan is a Hungarian adjective that translates to "unapproved," "unauthorized," or "disapproved" in English. It describes something that has not received official consent, sanction, or endorsement. The term is often used in legal, administrative, or official contexts where formal approval is required for an action, document, or item.

For instance, a building plan that has not been approved by the relevant authorities would be described as jóváhagyatlan. Similarly, a financial transaction that lacks the necessary authorization might be deemed jóváhagyatlan. In a broader sense, it can also refer to something that is generally frowned upon or not accepted by a particular group or society, though this usage is less formal.

The opposite of jóváhagyatlan is jóváhagyott, meaning "approved" or "authorized." The presence or absence of approval indicated by this word is crucial for understanding the legitimacy and official status of various matters. It signifies a lack of official backing and, in many cases, implies that the subject in question may be invalid, illegal, or subject to rejection.
