összetevnek

Összetevő is a Hungarian noun meaning an ingredient or a component of a mixture, dish, product, or system. It is widely used in cooking, food labeling, manufacturing, and technical or software contexts to refer to a part that contributes to the whole. In everyday language it often appears in lists of ingredients for recipes or in descriptions of how a product is assembled.

Összetevőnek is the dative singular form of összetevő. It is used in constructions that express the role of a part within a larger whole or in predicates that treat something as an ingredient. For example, Ezt összetevőnek tekintjük means “We consider this as an ingredient.” The form also appears in more formal or technical language when labeling a component within a description or specification.

Összetevőként is a common form that explicitly means “as an ingredient.” It is used to describe the role of a part in a recipe, a bill of materials, or a modular system. For example, A receptben ezt az összetevőt összetevőként kell felhasználni translates to “In the recipe, this ingredient must be used as an ingredient.”

Usage notes: common synonymy includes alkotóelem and komponens, though these terms can carry slightly different nuance depending on context (emphasizing either additive parts, functional components, or programming/computer systems). The standard noun form összetevő is used in most everyday contexts.
