Összegzésül

Összegzésül is a Hungarian adverbial expression meaning “in summary,” “for the sake of summarizing,” or “to summarize.” It is used to introduce a concluding or synthesizing statement in formal writing and speeches.

Etymology and grammar: the term is formed from the noun összegzés (summation, summary) plus the suffix -ül, which creates an adverbial phrase indicating purpose or function. In sentences, összegzésül functions as an introductory phrase that frames the following as a concise recap or closing remark. It belongs to standard Hungarian grammar and is typical of written, careful style rather than everyday conversation.

Usage: Összegzésül is commonly found in academic essays, research reports, policy papers, conference proceedings, legal or administrative texts, and editorial writing. It signals that the writer is transitioning from detailed discussion to a compact conclusion. A typical construction is: Összegzésül megállapítható, hogy... (In summary, it can be concluded that…).

Style and alternatives: while Összegzésül carries a formal, somewhat literary tone, other options include összefoglalva (in short, in summary), összegzésképpen (as a summary), or összegzésként (as a summary). The choice of form depends on register and emphasis; -ül tends to emphasize a purposeful summarization rather than a mere recap.

Examples: Összegzésül elmondhatjuk, hogy a vizsgálat továbbra is szükséges kérdéseket hozott napvilágra. Összegzésül röviden: a módszer hatékonynak bizonyult, de korlátozásai vannak.
