ültetvénybe

ültetvénybe is the illative case form of the Hungarian noun ültetvény, meaning into a plantation. Ültetvény denotes a large cultivated area where crops, trees, or vines are planted and tended, such as vineyards, orchards, or forestry plantations. The illative suffix -ba/-be follows vowel harmony rules; because ültetvény contains front vowels, the form is -be: ültetvénybe. The illative character of this form indicates motion toward or into the plantation.

Origin and form: ültetvény derives from ültet (to plant) with a nominalizing suffix -vény, creating a noun that denotes a place connected with planting. The illative ültetvénybe is used whenever the sentence expresses entering or moving into the plantation. By contrast, forms like ültetvényben mean “in the plantation,” used for static location rather than movement.

Usage: ültetvénybe is primarily a grammatical tool to express direction toward a plantation. It appears in sentences describing entering a plantation or moving into such a place. Example: Beléptek az ültetvénybe. — They entered the plantation. The form is contrasted with other case forms such as ültetvényben (in the plantation) and with non-illative expressions that describe location or contact without movement.
