érkezéséig

érkezéséig is a Hungarian expression that functions as an adverbial time marker meaning “until the arrival” (of someone or something). It is used to indicate a deadline or horizon tied to the moment when an arrival occurs, for example a person, a train, or a shipment.

Formation and etymology: the form is built from érkezés (arrival). A possessive suffix -e is added to create érkezésé (the arrival’s), and the temporal suffix -ig (until) is appended, yielding érkezéséig. Thus the phrase literally encodes “until the arrival.” Because Hungarian combines affixes with stem words, érkezéséig is a single, fixed unit that can modify verbs, clauses, or whole sentences.

Usage: érkezéséig is used to set a time limit anchored to an arrival. It frequently appears in travel schedules, event notices, service arrangements, and contexts where action depends on someone’s or something’s arrival. It collocates with verbs of waiting, opening hours, or commitments that are pending until the arrival occurs.

Examples:

- A vonat érkezéséig a pályaudvaron várnak. (They wait at the station until the train’s arrival.)

- A recepció érkezéséig nyitva van. (The reception is open until the guest’s arrival.)

- A rendezvényt érkezéséig befejezhetik észlelésekkel. (This example illustrates scheduling until arrival; more common phrasing would be chosen in practice.)

Relation to other forms: érkezéséig contrasts with érkezés után (after the arrival) and amíg meg nem érkezik (until it arrives), which express related but distinct temporal relations.
