mentéshez

Mentéshez is a Hungarian postpositional form derived from the noun mentés, which can mean rescue, saving, or data backup depending on context. The suffix -hoz marks direction or purpose and is attached to the base to indicate “for saving” or “for rescue.” It is not a separate lexical item with a fixed meaning of its own; rather, it functions within phrases to specify the purpose of an action, device, or procedure.

In everyday language, mentéshez is used to express the intended use of something. In emergency or safety contexts, it conveys “for rescue” or “for saving lives and property,” as in phrases describing equipment, procedures, or criteria needed to carry out a rescue operation. In information technology and data management, mentéshez often means “for backup,” referring to systems, software, or processes that preserve data.

Examples:

- A mentéshez szükséges eszközök listája. (The list of tools required for the rescue.)

- Adatmentéshez használt szoftver felel a biztonsági mentésért. (The software used for data backup is responsible for preserving data.)

- A mentéshez kapcsolódó protokollok ismertetése. (Description of the procedures related to rescue/backup.)

Relation to other forms: mentéshez is the dative-like form indicating purpose; related forms include mentésre (for the act of saving/rescue) and mentésben (in saving or rescue). The exact suffix between -hoz, -hez, -höz is determined by Hungarian vowel harmony rules.

Overall, mentéshez is a functional form used to specify the purpose of an action, tool, or process in both safety and IT contexts.
