képletének

Képletének is the genitive possessive form of the Hungarian noun képlet, which means formula, equation, or expression. In English, it can be rendered as “the formula’s” or “of the formula,” depending on context. The form appears when referring to something that belongs to or concerns a particular formula.

Morphology and formation: In Hungarian, nouns can carry possessive and case-inflection endings. Képletének is formed from képlet plus the third-person singular possessive suffix combined with the genitive/possessive linker suffix -nek, yielding the ending -ének. This construction signals that the following noun or phrase relates to that specific formula. For example, in a sentence such as A képletének értelmezése nehéz, the phrase can be interpreted as “the interpretation of the formula” or more simply “the formula’s interpretation,” depending on syntactic position.

Usage: Képletének is primarily found in formal or technical writing, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, and related fields, where authors discuss properties, derivations, interpretations, or applications of a particular formula. Its use requires a clear referent for the possessor (the subject to whom the formula belongs or to which the formula pertains) and typically appears in noun phrases that modify or are modified by the following terms.
