Hozhatják

Hozhatják is a Hungarian verb form derived from hozni (to bring). It expresses possibility or permission for multiple subjects to perform the action of bringing, roughly translating as they may bring or they could bring.

Morphology and usage: The form hozhatják consists of the verb stem hoz- (from hozni) combined with the modal suffix -hat/-het to indicate possibility, and ending -ják to mark the third-person plural definite conjugation. In Hungarian, the definite-conjugation ending -ják is used when the direct object is definite (for example, a specific item being brought). If the object is indefinite, the corresponding form would be hozhatnak (they may bring).

Examples:

- A vendégek hozhatják a tortát. The guests may bring the cake.

- A szülők hozhatják a játékokat. The parents may bring the toys.

Related forms and notes: For comparison, hozhatnak means they may bring with an indefinite object (they may bring something), while hozhatja would be the third-person singular form (he/she may bring). The base verb remains hozni, and the modal -hat/-het suffix conveys possibility or permission in various person and number configurations.

In summary, hozhatják is a specific Hungarian verb form used to express that “they may bring,” with a definite object and third-person plural subject, formed through the combination of the stem hoz-, the potential suffix -hat, and the definite plural ending -ják.
