Etymology and grammar: The verb megfelel consists of the prefix meg- and the root felel, historically related to answering or fitting. Megfelel means to meet or be suitable. The participle megfelelve functions as an adverbial participle or postposed participle, conveying the sense of compliance or conformity. In usage, it is typically followed by a noun phrase in the dative (e.g., a szabályoknak, a feltételeknek), as in a szabályoknak megfelelve, “in compliance with the rules.”

Usage and nuance: Megfelelve is most often employed in formal contexts, such as legal documents, standards documentation, and regulatory communication. It emphasizes not just suitability but adherence to external criteria. Common alternatives include megfelel a szabványoknak (meets the standards) and a szabályoknak megfelelően (in accordance with the rules). The related noun megfelelés denotes the state or act of conforming, while megfelel mindig points to the act of meeting requirements.
