törvénnyé

törvénnyé is a Hungarian linguistic form that means “into a law” or “as a law.” It is formed by adding the suffix -vé to the noun törvény (law), producing a predicative or destination form that marks the resulting status of something once it is enacted. The construction is most commonly encountered in formal or legal contexts to describe the moment or condition in which a rule or proposal becomes law.

In use, törvénnyé functions together with verbs of becoming or declaring, such as válik (becomes) and nyilvánít (declares). Typical constructions include törvénnyé válik, meaning “becomes a law,” as in a legislative proposal that takes effect after approval. Another common pattern is to say that something is törvénnyé nyilvánítva, or to use a past-tense form like nyilvánította törvénnyé, meaning “declared/declared it as a law.” Because it is a formal legal expression, törvénnyé is more frequent in official documents, parliamentary debates, and news reporting about legislation than in everyday speech.

Etymology and related forms: törvénnyé derives from törvény (law) plus the transforming suffix -vé, which is one of the Hungarian -vá/-vé suffixes used to express conversion, designation, or role. Related phrases include törvény lesz (will be law) and nyilvánít törvénnyé (declares as law). In legal writing, the expression helps specify the legal status that legislation attains upon enactment.
