Questions & Answers about A készenléti üzemmód miatt áramtalanítjuk az eszközt.

What does miatt mean, and why does it come after készenléti üzemmód?

Miatt means because of or due to.

Hungarian often uses postpositions, which are like English prepositions except they come after the noun phrase, not before it. So:

• a készenléti üzemmód miatt = because of the standby mode

Literally, the structure is closer to:

• the standby mode because of

That is completely normal in Hungarian.

Is miatt a case ending?

No. Miatt is not a suffix attached to the noun; it is a separate word, a postposition.

So in:

• a készenléti üzemmód miatt

the noun phrase a készenléti üzemmód stays as a normal noun phrase, and miatt follows it.

This is different from something like eszközt, where -t really is a suffix attached to the noun.

Why do we have A at the beginning but az before eszközt?
