Gyakoroljanak

Gyakoroljanak is a Hungarian verb form derived from the infinitive gyakorolni, which means to practice, to exercise, or to rehearse. It is the present tense in the conjunctive mood (kötőmód), and it is the third-person plural form.

In Hungarian grammar, the conjunctive mood is used in dependent clauses introduced by vagy hogy, to express wishes, suggestions, or hypothetical actions, often directed at a group. Gyakoroljanak appears when the subject of the clause is they, and the speaker wants to indicate that they should or would practice. It is not the direct imperative form; that form for addressing a group would be gyakorljatok.

Usage examples include: "A tanár azt mondta, hogy gyakoroljanak minden nap." (The teacher said that they should practice every day.) "Fontos, hogy gyakoroljanak." (It is important that they practice.) "Kérjük, hogy gyakoroljanak a felkészülés részeként." (Please, let them practice as part of preparation.)

Morphology notes: the ending -janak/-jenek marks the third-person plural in the present subjunctive, attached to the verb stem gyakorol-. The choice between -janak and -jenek follows phonetic harmony rules, with -janak used in this case. Gyakoroljanak contrasts with gyakorolnak (present indicative, they practice) and with a direct imperative form such as gyakoroljatok (you, plural).
