szaunaként

Szaunaként is a Hungarian term that can refer to two primary concepts. Firstly, it is the genitive case of "szauna," meaning "sauna's." This form is used when indicating possession or association with a sauna, such as in phrases like "szaunakénti élmény" (sauna's experience) or "szaunakénti hőmérséklet" (sauna's temperature).

Secondly, and more commonly in a descriptive context, "szaunaként" functions as an adverbial phrase meaning "as a sauna." This usage describes something that is acting in the capacity of a sauna or possesses qualities similar to a sauna. For example, a room might be described as being used "szaunaként" if it is heated to very high temperatures, even if it is not a purpose-built sauna. It can also be used metaphorically to describe a situation that is intensely hot or uncomfortable, such as a crowded, unventilated space. The context in which "szaunaként" is used is crucial for determining its exact meaning.
