végeponttal

Végeponttal is the instrumental case form of the Hungarian noun végepont, meaning endpoint. In Hungarian grammar, instrumental forms express means, instrument, or accompaniment, and are typically formed with the suffixes -val or -vel. For végepont, the instrumental form that results is végeponttal. The exact spelling can vary slightly due to phonological harmony and assimilation, but végeponttal is the standard written form.

The word is mainly used in contexts that require indicating the means or reference point by which an action is carried out or described. As a technical or descriptive construction, végeponttal can appear in mathematical, geometric, or other formal language to specify that something is done “with an endpoint” or “using an endpoint” as a reference or tool. It is not a separate semantic category beyond the instrumental usage; rather, it is the noun végepont employed in its instrumental form to convey a means or accompaniment.

Etymology-wise, végeponttal is composed from végepont (endpoint) plus the instrumental suffix -tal, illustrating how Hungarian forms spatial or instrumental phrases by attaching case markers to base nouns. The term thus exemplifies standard Hungarian morphology rather than a distinct technical concept.
