érdekldésben

Érdekldésben is a nonstandard orthographic variant of the Hungarian word érdeklődésben. The canonical form érdeklődésben denotes being in a state of interest or curiosity about something, and is formed from the noun érdeklődés (interest, curiosity) with the inessive suffix -ben, indicating a location or state “in/within” that interest. The form without diacritics, érdekldésben, does not reflect a separate word; it is generally considered a misspelling or typographical variant resulting from omission of diacritics or typing errors.

The noun érdeklődés comes from the verb érdeklődni (to take an interest, to inquire) or from érdek (interest) with the suffix -dés to create a nominal form. The inessive case -ben marks a state or location in relation to that noun. Thus érdeklődésben literally translates to “in interest” or “in a state of interest,” used to describe someone’s attention, curiosity, or the level of engagement with a topic, event, or matter.

Orthographically, Hungarian standard writing requires diacritics, so the correct form is érdeklődésben. In contexts where diacritics are omitted—such as plain ASCII text, quick note-taking, or optical character recognition errors—the form érdekldésben may appear. In formal writing and dictionaries, however, érdeklődésben is the preferred spellings.

Usage notes: the expression is used to describe a state of interest regarding a subject or situation and can appear in descriptive or narrative text. It is not a separate lexical item beyond érdeklődés, but rather a inflected form indicating the state of that interest. See also érdeklődés, érdekel, érdeklődni.
