szappannal

Szappannal is a Hungarian instrumental case form of the noun szappan (soap). It denotes the instrument or means by which an action is performed, equivalent to “with soap” in English. The instrumental case in Hungarian is formed with the suffix -val/-vel; after stems ending in a consonant, the form often appears as -nal/-nel. For szappan, the result is szappannal, created by attaching -nal to the stem szappan, which yields a doubled n before the suffix and an ending l.

Usage: szappannal is used to indicate that soap is the tool or medium used to perform the verb, such as washing or cleaning. It is commonly combined with other words like and water to form “szappannal és vízzel” (with soap and water). The form is standard in both formal and informal Hungarian.

Examples:

- A kezeket szappannal és vízzel mossuk meg.

- A felületet szappannal és vízzel tisztítják.

- Ezt a módszert gyakran alkalmazzák szappannal és vízzel a tisztításnál.
