Bicikliknél

Bicikliknél is a Hungarian locative form that means “at the bicycles.” It is formed from the plural noun biciklik, meaning bicycles, combined with the locative suffix -nál/-nél to indicate location. The expression is used to specify a place where bicycles are located or parked.

Formation and meaning: The base word bicikli has a plural form biciklik. Adding the locative suffix -nál/-nél yields bicikliknél, which roughly corresponds to English “at the bicycles.” Like other Hungarian locatives, the suffix agrees with vowel harmony rules in the language and is used to mark a positional relationship rather than possession or action.

Usage: Bicikliknél appears in sentences describing where bicycles are found or where activities related to bicycles take place. For example, a sign might indicate “A bicikliknél lesz a szerelő” (The mechanic will be at the bicycles) or a guide might say “A bicikliknél vár a kulcs” (The key waits at the bicycles). It is common in contexts such as bike racks, storage areas, or service stations.

Linguistic note: Bicikliknél illustrates how Hungarian uses plural nouns followed by a locative suffix to express location. It is comparable to other locative forms like asztalnál (at the table) or ablaknál (at the window), but specifically refers to a group of bicycles.
