szüntet

Szüntet is a Hungarian verb meaning to terminate, discontinue, or abolish a status, contract, service, or activity. It denotes the act of ending something that previously existed or operated. The related noun megszüntetés refers to the act or process of termination. The term is used in both formal contexts, such as legal and administrative language, and in everyday speech.

In usage, szüntet can be found in phrases like megszüntetni egy szerződést (to terminate a contract) or megszüntetni a jogviszonyt (to terminate a legal relationship). In formal writing, the process is often described with nouns rather than verbs, for example a jogviszony megszüntetése (the termination of the legal relationship) or a szolgáltatás megszüntetése (the termination of a service). Termination procedures frequently involve notices, deadlines, or mutual agreement and may carry legal consequences for the parties involved. In everyday language, more common verbs such as megszüntetni or felmondani may be used depending on nuance and context.

Related terms include megszüntetés (termination/abolition), megszüntető (terminating, an agent or adjective form), and felmondás (cancellation or termination of a contract in colloquial usage). Etymologically, szüntet is built on a root associated with cessation and is used with various affixes to form related nouns and verbs.
