munkanapra

Munkanapra is a Hungarian time-reference expression formed from the noun munkanap (working day, weekday) with the suffix -ra. It denotes a timeframe or deadline that is tied to a working day rather than a calendar day, and it is commonly used in business, administrative, and contractual contexts.

Grammatically, -ra marks a directional or target reference for time. Munkanapra is typically used in formal language to indicate when an action should occur, be completed, or when a deadline applies. The phrase is most often found in contracts, invoices, service terms, and official correspondence. In everyday speech, speakers may simply use more general forms, but munkanapra appears frequently where precision about working-day calendars matters.

Usage and nuance: The term contrasts with references to calendar days (kalendárnap) and with expressions that specify weekends or holidays. Because weekends and official holidays are not considered munkanapok, scheduling with munkanapra effectively excludes those days. It is common to see combinations with numerals to express durations, such as two or several working days.

Examples:

- A fizetési határidő munkanapra van meghatározva. (The payment deadline is set for a working day.)

- A szolgáltatás teljesítését két munkanapra vállalják. (They undertake to complete the service in two working days.)

- Számlát a következő munkanapra kell kiállítani. (The invoice must be issued for the next business day.)
