Bajnokságokra

Bajnokságokra is a Hungarian term formed from bajnokság (championship or league) with the plural suffix -okra. It is used to refer to multiple championships in contexts that require the direction toward or the preparation for those events, for example in phrases like “felkészül a bajnokságokra” (prepares for the championships).

Etymology and meaning: The base word bajnokság means a competition that determines the champion or the season-long league title. It is formed from bajnok (champion) plus a suffix that创建 an abstract noun meaning the institution or event of crowning champions. The plural form bajnokságok denotes several such championships, and bajnokságokra is the corresponding plural form used with postpositions to indicate reference to or movement toward those championships.

Usage in Hungarian sports discourse: In Hungarian sports journalism and team communications, bajnokságokra is used when talking about multiple championships within a season or across several competitions. Examples include preparing for multiple leagues, entering several championships, or discussing calendar planning. The term is common across sports such as football, basketball, and swimming, especially when describing a club’s activities, schedules, or goals tied to more than one league or title competition.

Relation to other competition terms: The word bajnokság is often contrasted with other formats such as kupa (cup) or széria (series). While bajnokságokra refers to leagues or championships, other terms denote separate formats or single-event competitions. In Hungary, national leagues are typically referred to as Nemzeti Bajnokság, with NB I being the top division, NB II the secondary, and so on.
