nyi nyí nyî Nýi -nyî -nyĭ Hungarian Etymology From the now-dialectal lative suffix hu -ni. late 12th century. hu Pronunciation hu ɲi 1 Suffix hu suffix adjective-forming suffixes hu adjective-forming suffix -ful, as much as. Added to a noun to form an adjective meaning "as much that can fit into", "as big as …". hu villa fork villányi forkful; as much that fills a fork hu tenyér palm of the hand tenyérnyi as big as a palm hu Magyarország Hungary → egy magyarországnyi terület (“an area as big as that of Hungary”, i.e. approx. an Indiana-sized area) Usage notes There are several Hungarian surnames (and eponymous street names) apparently with -nyi ending, however, they usually derive from the name of a settlement that ends in -ny, so they do not contain this suffix. Some examples are Öttevényi (from Öttevény), Herényi (from Herény), Ladányi (from Ladány), Petényi/Pethényi (from Petény). Hence, their derivation from the -nyi ending is unlikely, though possible (e.g. petényi “as big as an egg cell”, from hu pete “egg cell”).
