állítmánytól

The term "állítmánytól" is a Hungarian grammatical concept. It is the allative case ending for the noun "állítmány," which means "predicate" in English. The allative case in Hungarian expresses motion towards or destination. Therefore, "állítmánytól" literally translates to "from the predicate."

However, the grammatical function of "állítmánytól" is not to indicate a physical movement away from a predicate. Instead, it's a more abstract application of the allative case, often used in linguistic analysis to denote a departure from or a distinction relating to the predicate of a sentence. For example, it might be used to describe how a particular word or phrase differs from the established predicate.

In Hungarian grammar, the allative case is marked by the suffix "-tól" or "-től," depending on vowel harmony. When attached to "állítmány," which ends in a back vowel, the "-tól" suffix is used. While the allative case typically signifies "from" in a physical sense (e.g., "házból" - from the house), its use with abstract nouns like "állítmány" suggests a more figurative or analytical meaning. Understanding "állítmánytól" requires grasping the broader principles of Hungarian case grammar and how these cases can be applied to abstract concepts in linguistic discourse.
