Gondokat

Gondokat is the plural accusative form of the Hungarian noun gond, which means concern, worry, or trouble. In everyday use, gondokat refers to multiple concerns or burdens that a person or group faces. The term can describe practical problems as well as emotional or existential worries, and it is commonly found in both spoken and written Hungarian to indicate issues that require attention or action.

Gond is a core element of Hungarian vocabulary and has related derivatives such as gondol (to think), gondolat (thought), and gondoskodás (care). While gond conveys a broad sense of concern or care, related words shape related nuances: gondolkodás (thinking) and gondolat (thought) share the same semantic root, whereas aggodalom or aggodalmak more specifically express anxiety or apprehension.

In literature, journalism, and daily speech, gondokat may be used to emphasize the weight of multiple problems affecting an individual, a family, or a community. The term allows speakers to convey not only the existence of troubles but also the burden they impose and the need for attention or resolution.
