élelemhez

élelemhez is a directional construction in Hungarian that means “to the provisions” or “toward the food supply.” It is formed by attaching the directional suffix -hoz, -hoz, or -höz to the noun élelem, which means provisions or food. The standard form élelemhez follows vowel harmony and is used to indicate movement toward the provisions as a destination or goal.

In grammatical terms, élelemhez functions as a prepositional complement expressing direction or destination. It is typically used with verbs of motion or with phrases describing access to food supplies. It can appear in literal contexts (logistics, aid delivery) as well as metaphorical ones (securing basic necessities).

Examples:

- A raktárból az élelemhez vezető út kulcsfontosságú a katasztrófa utáni ellátásban. (From the warehouse, the road to the food supply is crucial in post-disaster relief.)

- A segélyprogram célja az élelemhez való hozzájutás megkönnyítése. (The aid program aims to facilitate access to food.)

- Az élelemhez vezető út világossá teszi, hová kell irányítani a szállítmányokat. (The road to the food supply clarifies where to direct the shipments.)

Notes: élelemhez is a concrete, everyday usage, while its metaphorical uses emphasize access to basic necessities. The concept is closely related to terms like ellátmány or hozzájárulás, which describe broader provisioning and supply actions.
