Gondoskodjunk

Gondoskodjunk is the Hungarian verb form formed from gondoskodni, meaning “to take care” or “to provide for,” combined with the inclusive imperative suffix -junk. The result is the first-person plural exhortation “let us take care,” used to encourage collective action and responsibility. Grammatically, gondoskodjunk is the jussive mood of gondoskodni, signaling a proposal or suggestion to a group.

In usage, gondoskodjunk functions as a broad ethical appeal rather than a fixed program. It is employed in everyday speech, as well as in organizational communications, public campaigns, and media rhetoric, to prompt care for others, communities, or shared responsibilities. It commonly appears in phrases such as gondoskodjunk egymásról or gondoskodjunk a környezetünkről, depending on the context, to frame actions around mutual aid, support, and social welfare.

Culturally, the phrase reflects a popular emphasis on communal responsibility and solidarity within Hungarian discourse. It is not associated with a specific organization or brand; rather, it is a versatile linguistic tool that can be adopted by NGOs, government bodies, or media to articulate a collective approach to caregiving and welfare.
