Üldöztetésnek is the dative singular form of the Hungarian noun üldöztetés, which means persecution or harassment. The base word üldöztetés derives from the verb üldözni, “to persecute,” and denotes the act, process, or system of persecuting someone. The form with the suffix -nek (üldöztetésnek) marks the dative case, which in Hungarian is used for various grammatical functions, including predicative expressions with verbs such as tekintani (to regard) or minősíteni (to qualify), where the noun appears as the complement.

In use, üldöztetésnek appears in constructions that describe something as persecution or that indicate persecution as a category or standard. A typical example is ez üldöztetésnek tekinthető, meaning “this can be regarded as persecution.” The form can also appear in legal or descriptive contexts to translate or discuss the concept of persecution in Hungarian, including discussions of human rights, asylum, or historical analysis.

Etymologically, the term combines üldöz (to chase or persecute) with the nominalizing suffix -tetés, yielding a noun for the action or condition. The dative form üldöztetésnek then enables statements about the action or condition in a predicative or classificatory sense, as seen in sentences that describe, classify, or evaluate circumstances as persecution.

Overall, üldöztetésnek functions as a grammatical form tied to the noun üldöztetés, enabling Hungarian speakers to express “as persecution” or “to be considered/perceived as persecution” within a range of analytical, legal, and descriptive contexts.
