szerveiként

The Hungarian word szerveiként is a compound form that combines the noun szerve, meaning "organ" or "institution", with the suffix -ként, which expresses "as" or "in the capacity of". When used together, the term conveys the sense of acting or functioning in the role of an organization or a structured body. It appears primarily in formal or academic contexts, where a person, group, or entity is described as performing a task or exercising influence in an institutional manner.

Szerveiként is typically found in sentences that emphasize the organizational dimension of an activity, for example: "A civil szerveiként működő csoport fókuszált a közösség javára." This construction helps highlight that the listed entity is not merely participating informally but is fulfilling an organized, often bureaucratic role. The word is part of a broader class of Hungarian constructs ending in -ként, such as diáként (as a student), vagyóként (as a minister), that indicate a particular capacity or role.

While not extremely common in everyday conversation, szerveiként is useful in legal or formal writing, where specifying the organized nature of participation is crucial. It is unambiguous and straightforward, combining a concrete organizational noun with the nominalized form of the preposition "kint." The term is recognized by lexical dictionaries and is considered standard Hungarian usage.
