Elrevetítenek

Elrevetítenek is a Hungarian verb form. It is the third-person plural present indicative of the verb elrevetíteni, which roughly means to frighten away, deter, or drive away, typically through intimidation or threat.

In use, elrevetítenek describes a collective action by multiple subjects to cause something or someone to leave or stay away. It can apply to people, animals, or pests, depending on the context. A typical example could be: Ők elrevetítenek minden betolakodót, meaning “They deter all intruders.”

Morphologically, elrevetítenek is formed from the stem of elrevetíteni with the usual present-plural suffix. In Hungarian, the third-person plural present indicative ending is -nek/-nek, so elrevetítenek reflects a plural subject performing the action in the present time. The form is used when the subject is plural and the action is currently taking place or described as a habitual or general statement.

Related terms and alternatives include elriasztás (deterrence), which refers to the act or policy of deterring, and riasztani (to alarm or deter). Elrevetíteni is less common in everyday language than more general verbs for deterring or driving away, such as elriasztani or elhárítani, but it appears in contexts emphasizing intimidation as a means to push something away.
