vétellel

Vétellel is the instrumental singular form of the Hungarian noun vétel, which means purchase or acquisition. It denotes the means or method by which something is obtained, and is commonly translated as “by purchase” or “with a purchase” in English. The form is typical in formal or technical writing, such as legal, financial, or business contexts.

Morphology and usage: In Hungarian, the instrumental case is formed with the suffix -val/-vel. When the stem ends in a consonant, the final consonant is often doubled before adding the suffix, producing forms like vétellel. The word thus serves to express how an asset or item was obtained, rather than what was obtained.

Contexts and examples: Vétellel is typically used to describe transactions or financing methods. For example, a sentence such as “A gépeket vétellel szerezte be a vállalat” means “The company acquired the machines by purchase.” Another example is “A beruházást vétellel finanszírozták,” meaning “They financed the investment by purchase.” In legal or accounting prose, vételel szóval can appear in phrases like “vétellel történő megszerzés” to specify acquisition by purchase.

Relation to related terms: Vétel is the base noun meaning purchase or acquisition, related to the more general term vásárlás (buying). The instrumental form véttelével or vétellel fits into Hungarian’s system of indicating means and method, alongside other case and suffix constructions used to describe how actions are carried out.
