"Példaként" is a Hungarian word that translates to "as an example" or "for example" in English. It is used to introduce an illustration or instance that clarifies a general statement or concept. The word is formed by combining "példa" (example) with the suffix "-ként" (as, like).

When "példaként" is used, it signals to the reader or listener that what follows is a specific case that serves to demonstrate a broader idea. This helps in making abstract concepts more concrete and easier to understand. For instance, one might say, "Sokféleképpen lehet egészségesen élni, például reggelente futni." (There are many ways to live healthily, for example, running in the mornings.) Here, "futni" (running) is presented "példaként" to illustrate one of the many healthy living options.

The function of "példaként" is similar to that of "for instance" or "such as" in English. It is a common linguistic tool used in everyday conversation, writing, and formal discourse to provide clarity and support for an argument or explanation. Its presence indicates a transition from a general statement to a specific, illustrative detail.
