példát

Példát is a Hungarian word that translates to "example" or "illustration" in English. It functions as a noun, denoting a specific instance or case that is used to clarify or support a point. The word is derived from the root "példa," meaning "example," with the suffix "-t" indicating the accusative case. In Hungarian grammar, példa is typically used in the nominative or accusative forms, depending on its function within a sentence. For instance, one might say: "Nézd a példát, ahogy működik ez a rendszer," meaning "Look at the example of how this system works."

Példát is commonly employed in educational, legal, and everyday contexts. In teaching, instructors frequently request students to give a példa to illustrate a concept. In legal documents, a példa might refer to a precedent or case law that supports a particular argument. Additionally, Hungarian speakers often use the phrase "például" (for example) in everyday conversation to introduce a sample or illustrative case.

The term is also part of idiomatic expressions such as "pozíciódban A példa" (to illustrate your position) or "nem egyben, azaz példa szerint" (as in the example). While the Hungarian language has several synonyms for "example," such as jelzés or felhívás, példa remains the most commonly used term in both formal and informal contexts. The word’s usage has remained consistent over time, maintaining its role as a key linguistic tool for demonstrating points and clarifying meaning.
