örökölve

örökölve is a Hungarian word that translates to "inherited" or "by inheritance" in English. It describes something acquired through inheritance, meaning it is passed down from one generation to another, typically upon the death of the previous owner. This concept is fundamental in legal and familial contexts, particularly concerning property, assets, or even non-material attributes.

In legal terms, örökölve signifies the transfer of ownership from a deceased person (the testator or decedent) to their heirs. This can apply to real estate, financial accounts, personal belongings, or even debts. The specific laws governing inheritance vary significantly by jurisdiction, but the principle of örökölve remains consistent – the transfer of rights and obligations.

Beyond material possessions, örökölve can also refer to the passing down of traditions, cultural practices, or even genetic traits. For instance, a family's artistic talent might be described as örökölve, suggesting it has been a characteristic present across multiple generations. Similarly, a deeply ingrained societal custom could be said to be örökölve by the community. The term thus encapsulates both the formal legal processes and the more informal, generational transmission of various elements.
