tudományhoz

Tudományhoz is a Hungarian grammatical form derived from tudomány, meaning science or knowledge. The noun tudomány covers both “science” as a systematic body of knowledge and “knowledge” in general. The suffix -omány forms abstract nouns from verbs such as tudni, meaning “to know,” yielding tudomány, which can refer to knowledge or science. The word can denote science as a field or accurate knowledge backed by evidence.

Tudományhoz is the allative/dative case form with the suffix -hoz, -hez, or -höz, used to indicate direction toward something or a field of reference. When attached to tudomány, it yields tudományhoz, meaning “to science” or “towards science.” It is used with verbs that involve appealing to or consulting a source of information, for example: A döntéshozók a tudományhoz fordultak. A pedagógusok a tudományhoz fordulnak a bizonyítékokért.

Context and translation: In Hungarian, tudományhoz signals a relation to scientific knowledge and is common in scientific, educational, and policy discourse. In English it is usually rendered as “to science” or “to the science,” depending on the sentence. It is not a separate concept but a grammatical form that expresses reference to science as a source of authority.
