visszatéréshez

Visszatéréshez is a Hungarian grammatical form, specifically the allative case form of the noun visszatérés, which means “return” or “reappearance.” The allative suffix indicates direction toward or a purpose related to the return, and in this word the form is visszatéréshez. Hungarian uses three allative variants (-hoz, -hez, -höz) chosen according to vowel harmony, so the exact variant depends on the preceding stem’s vowels.

Etymology and construction: visszatérés combines vissza- (back, again) with térés (returning or turning), yielding a noun meaning the act or process of returning. The suffix -hez attaches to denote destination or purpose: “to the return” or “for the return.” As a case form, visszatéréshez is typically used within larger noun phrases or clauses rather than as an independent lexical item.

Usage: Visszatéréshez appears in formal, written, or technical Hungarian. It is common in legal, political, religious, and philosophical texts where one discusses steps, requirements, or pathways related to returning, whether to a homeland, a previous state, a belief, or a position. Examples include: “A visszatéréshez szükséges lépések” (the steps necessary for the return) and “visszatéréshez vezető út” (the path leading to the return). It can also modify verbs in constructions that describe purpose or necessity.

Other notes: As with other Hungarian case forms, the choice among -hoz, -hez, -höz depends on vowel harmony and the phonological context of the stem. Visszatéréshez should be understood as a specialized grammatical form rather than a standalone common noun, used to specify the aim or destination of returning within a broader statement.
