Hozzád

Hozzád is a Hungarian prepositional pronoun meaning "to you" or "toward you." It combines the directional preposition hoz- (“to/toward”) with the second-person singular form, and it functions as an indirect object or recipient in a sentence, indicating the person toward whom an action is directed.

The form is used in contexts where the action involves contacting, addressing, or directing something at the addressee. It often appears with verbs of speaking, giving, or turning toward someone, and it can mark both the recipient of an action and the target of communication or contact. In Hungarian, hozzád contrasts with locational or possessive forms such as nálad (at/with you) or a te form attached to a noun (your ...).

Examples include phrases like Hozzád szólnak, meaning "They speak to you," and Hozzád fordulok, meaning "I turn to you." In all such uses, hozzád specifies the person being referred to as the recipient or target of the action, rather than a location or possession.

Etymology and related forms: hozzád is formed from the directional preposition hoz- ("to/toward") plus the second-person singular suffix, producing a clitic-like pronoun that attaches to prepositions to denote the recipient. Related forms in the same system include hozzátok (to you all) for plural addressees and azzal or hozzá for other persons, reflecting the broader Hungarian system of directional pronouns combined with person markers.

In usage, hozzád is part of a broader dative-like construction in Hungarian, where the indirect object is marked through prepositional pronouns rather than a separate dative case as in some other languages.
