élelmiszerrel

Élelmiszerrel is the instrumental case form of the Hungarian noun élelmiszer, meaning “with food” or “by means of food.” In Hungarian grammar, the instrumental expresses means or accompaniment and is formed with the suffix -val/-vel; in this word the conventional written form is élelmiszerrel, used after a stem whose ending requires the -rel variant.

Usage and context: élelmiszerrel is employed when describing how something is provided, supplied, or facilitated through food. It appears in humanitarian, logistical, administrative, and legal texts, as well as in everyday language, to indicate that food is the means of provision or the accompanying item in a shipment or aid package. Examples include phrases such as a segélyt élelmiszerrel adták át (the aid was distributed with food) or élelmiszerrel és higiéniai eszközökkel látják el a közösséget (they supply the community with food and hygienic supplies).

Etymology: élelmiszer means “food” or “edible goods.” The term is a common component in modern Hungarian terminology for the food industry and related sectors, such as élelmiszeripar (food industry) and élelmiszerellátás (food supply).
