Ágakkal

Ágakkal is a Hungarian instrumental plural form of the noun ág (branch). It literally means “with branches” and is used to indicate accompaniment or means, typically in descriptions of objects, decorations, or natural scenes. The underlying form is ágak (branches); the instrumental plural suffix -kkal attaches to this plural, yielding ágakkal. The pronunciation is [ˈaːkɒkkɒl] in standard Hungarian.

In usage, ágakkal appears in descriptive or poetic contexts as well as in practical descriptions of decoration or construction. Examples include decorations and arrangements that use branches as part of the design, or statements about what an object or space contains or is made with. For instance: "Az ünnepi koszorút ágakkal díszítették" (The festive wreath was decorated with branches); "A kertet ágakkal kerítették." (The garden was fenced with branches); "A faágakkal van díszítve" could be used to describe a tree decorated with branches.

Morphology and grammar: ág (branch) → ágak (plural) → ágakkal (instrumental plural, “with branches”). The form illustrates how Hungarian builds the instrumental plural by combining the plural noun with the suffix -kkal, preserving vowel harmony and consonant assimilation.
