névutókelljárószók

Névutókelljárószók is a linguistic term originating from Hungarian grammar. It refers to a specific category of words that function as both a noun (név-) and a postposition (-utó). These words, often referred to as postpositional nouns or noun-postpositions, possess a unique dual grammatical role. In essence, they can stand alone as a noun, taking case endings and performing syntactic functions typical of nouns. However, they can also attach to another noun or pronoun, acting as a postposition that expresses a relationship between the preceding noun/pronoun and the rest of the sentence. This relationship can indicate location, direction, time, manner, or other semantic connections, much like prepositions do in many other languages, but appearing after the noun or pronoun they govern. The "-kelljáró-" part of the term signifies their "walking" or "traveling" function, highlighting their ability to connect and relate different elements. Understanding névtókelljárószók is crucial for comprehending the complexities of Hungarian syntax and the flexible nature of its word classes.
