Elegyeknél

Elegyeknél is a Hungarian word form that can be analyzed as a locative plural expression built from the noun légy, meaning fly. In Hungarian, the plural of légy is legyek, and the plural adessive suffix -knál/-nál marks “at the [plural noun]” or “by the [plural noun].” Therefore, legyeknél functions as “at the flies” or “by the flies.” The specific spelling elegyeknél is a variant that appears in some texts, but the underlying structure is legyek + nál/-nál, with the affix chosen according to the general rules of Hungarian vowel harmony and suffixation.

Morphology and spelling notes

- Base noun: légy (singular), legyek (plural flies).

- Adessive plural suffix: -knál or -nál, indicating location.

- Resulting form: legyeknél in standard orthography; some sources or dialectal contexts may show a different placement or spelling, such as elegyeknél, depending on historical or orthographic conventions.

- The form demonstrates how Hungarian encodes number (plural) and location (adessive) on a single noun phrase.

Usage and context

- Elegyeknél serves to specify a location relative to multiple flies and is typically found in descriptive or technical writing, for example in entomology, pest control, or habitat descriptions.

- It is less common in everyday speech, where speakers might prefer simpler constructions such as a legyek közelében (near the flies) or a similar alternative depending on context.

- Like other adessive forms, elegyeknél answers questions of where something is or occurs in relation to a plural noun.
