keresztezve

Keresztezve is the adverbial participle of the Hungarian verb keresztezni, meaning to cross, intersect, or crossbreed. It denotes that a crossing has occurred or that two elements have been crossed or interwoven. Grammatically, keresztezve functions as a határozói igenév (adverbial participle) and is used to connect clauses or to describe a resulting state or accompanying action. The form is created by adding the suffix -ve to the verb stem keresztez-, following Hungarian vowel harmony (keresztezni → keresztezve).

In usage, keresztezve can appear in descriptive or technical contexts to indicate that a crossing has taken place. It is less common as a stand-alone modifier for nouns; for such purposes, the adjective keresztezett (crossed, hybrid) is typically used, particularly in scientific or agricultural language. For example, keresztezett fajta is a standard term for a hybrid variety, while keresztezve is more likely to appear in clauses describing an action or process of crossing.

Etymology and related forms: keresztezve is derived from keresztezni with the adverbial participle suffix -ve. Related terms include keresztezés (the act of crossing or crossing over) and kereszteződés (an intersection or crossroad), as well as keresztezett (hybrid or crossbred when used as an adjective).
