magatartásra

Magatartásra is a Hungarian noun form built from magatartás (behavior, conduct) with the suffix -ra/-re. It represents the allative case, conveying a sense of direction toward or applicability to behavior, and it is commonly used in phrases where behavior is the target of reference or regulation.

In use, magatartásra appears in compound expressions that describe rules, expectations, or statements relating to behavior. A typical construction is magatartásra vonatkozó, meaning “relating to behavior” or “applicable to behavior.” For example, magatartásra vonatkozó szabályok means “rules relating to behavior,” and magatartásra vonatkozó figyelmeztetések means “warnings relating to behavior.” The form can also appear with other adjectives or verbs that govern a relation to behavior.

Gramatically, magatartásra is not a standalone lemma but a derived form of magatartás used to indicate the target of reference or applicability. It is most common in formal or technical registers, such as legal, educational, or psychological writing, where precise scope—“to behavior” or “in regard to behavior”—needs to be specified. The alternative related forms include magatartásról (about behavior) and magatartásban/magatartásban? (in behavior), which express different relational nuances.

Semantically, magatartásra is closely tied to the core concept magatartás (behavior, conduct) and to synonyms like viselkedés. It serves as a grammatical tool to specify the domain to which a statement, rule, or observation applies, rather than as an independent concept.
