Érintkezvel

Érintkezvel is a Hungarian word that translates to "by touching" or "upon contact" in English. It is a verbal adverb, derived from the verb érintkezik, which means to touch, to be in contact, or to interact. The suffix "-vel" indicates the instrumental case, signifying the means or manner by which something occurs.

The word érintkezvel is used to describe an action or event that happens as a direct result of physical contact. For instance, one might say "A szikra érintkezvel gyulladt meg" which translates to "The spark ignited upon contact." This implies that the ignition was a consequence of something touching the material that sparked.

Beyond physical touch, érintkezvel can also be used in a more abstract sense to denote interaction or connection between entities. For example, in a metaphorical context, one could describe the exchange of ideas as "gondolatok érintkezvel alakultak ki," meaning "ideas formed through interaction." This usage highlights a process of mutual influence or exchange. The word is relatively common in both spoken and written Hungarian, appearing in various contexts where the notion of contact or interaction is central to the meaning.
