Jelezzétek

Jelezzétek is a Hungarian verb form used as the second-person plural imperative. It derives from the verb jelezni, meaning to signal, indicate, or report, and literally translates to “you all signal” or “please signal.” The form is employed to instruct a group to perform the action of signaling or reporting.

Formation and usage: In Hungarian, the second-person plural imperative is formed by adding the suffix -étek to the stem. For jelezni, the stem jelez- combines with -étek to produce jelezzétek. This imperative is common in formal or official contexts, such as safety procedures, emergency instructions, and organizational communications, where a group is being directed to act.

Contexts and nuance: Jelezzétek is a neutral and clear instruction suitable for written and spoken directives. It is typically used when addressing multiple listeners—e.g., workers, students, or participants—who are expected to report or signal a condition, event, or finding to a designated recipient or authority.

See also: jel (signal), jelzés (signal, indication), jelez (to signal), jelezni (to signal, to report), kommunikáció (communication). Etymology: formed from jel (signal) plus the verb-forming suffix -ezni, with the imperative suffix -étek marking the second-person plural.
