ünnepségekre

ünnepség is a Hungarian noun meaning a formal celebration or ceremonial event. It can refer to gatherings such as state ceremonies, official commemorations, weddings, jubilees, and other festive occasions. The term emphasizes the ceremonial or dignified character of the event, rather than a casual or everyday gathering. Plural: ünnepségek; adjectival forms and related words include ünnepélyes (ceremonial) and ünneplés (celebration, festivity).

The form ünnepségekre is the plural form with the postposition -re, which marks direction toward or relation to multiple celebrations. In practical terms, ünnepségekre corresponds to “to the celebrations” or “for the celebrations.” It is used to indicate what is being prepared for, scheduled for, or referred to with respect to several events. For example, meghívók küldése ünnepségekre means sending invitations for the celebrations. The construction typically appears in formal or semi-formal contexts such as event planning, invitations, programs, or reporting about planned activities linked to multiple occasions.

Usage notes and context: ünnepségek and related terms are common in official communications, invitations, calendars, and news reporting about public or private ceremonies. Distinctions in Hungarian include that ünnepség focuses on the event itself, while its related terms may emphasize the festive or ceremonial aspect. The word is part of a broader vocabulary for events and ceremonies, alongside rendezvény (event), ünnep (holiday or festival in a broader sense), and megemlékezés (commemoration).
