Felkapcsoltok

Felkapcsoltok is a Hungarian verb form. It is the second-person plural present indicative of the verb felkapcsolni, meaning you (all) switch on or turn on a device or system. The form is used when addressing more than one person directly.

Etymology and form: the word is built from the prefix fel-, the verb stem kapcsol (to connect or switch), and the personal ending -tok, which marks the second-person plural in the present tense. In Hungarian, felkapcsoltok is written as a single word and follows the standard pattern for conjugating -ni verbs in the second-person plural.

Usage: felkapcsoltok refers specifically to the action of turning something on in the present time toward a group of listeners. It can describe turning on lights, machines, circuits, or electrical equipment. While bekapcsolni is another common verb meaning “to switch on” in everyday language, felkapcsolni is understood and used in similar contexts, with the nuance of activating or enabling by turning a control.

Related forms and contrast: other forms of the same verb include felkapcsolok (I switch on), felkapcsolsz (you switch on, singular informal), felkapcsolunk (we switch on), and felkapcsolják (they switch on). The base kapcsol belongs to a set of Hungarian verbs that use prefixes to modify meaning; fel- generally signals activation or turning something on, while be- in bekapcsolni is a different verb with a similar broad meaning.

See also: kapcsoló (switch), kapcsolás (switching on), bekapcsolás (turning on). Notes on regional usage may vary, and bekapcsolni is often the more common term for “to turn on” in everyday language.
