menetét

Menetét is a Hungarian noun form derived from menet, a word with senses including parade or march and, more commonly in formal contexts, the course or progression of a process or events. The form menetét is used when referring to the course or development of something, often in a possessive or definite-object sense. It appears in phrases such as a vizsgálat menetét (the course of the investigation), a folyamat menetét (the progression of the process), or az események menetét (the course of the events). In these uses, the expression designates how something unfolds over time and is common in administrative, legal, academic, and journalistic writing.

In ceremonial contexts, the base word menet refers to a parade or march. There, the simple form is typically used, though descriptions of the march’s sequence or ordering can also employ forms related to menetét, depending on grammatical construction. The distinction between the ceremonial sense and the progression sense hinges on context and accompanying verbs and nouns.

Etymology and grammar: menet is the root; the form ending in -ét reflects Hungarian inflectional patterns that mark a definite-object or possessed reading of the noun in a given sentence. As with many Hungarian noun forms, the exact function of menetét depends on case suffixes and the broader syntactic structure.
