Kiadásaik

Kiadásaik is a Hungarian noun form that functions as the third-person plural possessive of kiadás. The base kiadás has several related meanings, most commonly expenditure or expense on a budget, and publication or release, such as a printed issue, edition, or film release. The word kiadásaik therefore means “their expenditures” or “their publications/releases,” depending on the context. Because kiadás is polysemous, kiadásaik does not carry a single fixed translation; its exact sense is determined by surrounding words.

In usage, kiadásaik appears when referring to what a group or organization spends or publishes. In financial or administrative texts, it denotes the total expenditures attributed to the subjects in question. In literary, media, or publishing contexts, it refers to the group’s issued works or releases. The form is created by taking the singular noun kiadás and attaching the third-person plural possessive suffix -aik, yielding kiadásaik as a single word.

Examples:

- A kiadásaik összege tavaly nőtt. (The amount of their expenditures increased last year.)

- A kiadásaik megjelenése szeptemberben várható. (Their publications/releases are expected to appear in September.)

Notes on distinction: kiadásaik is not the same as kiadások, which is the plural noun for kiadás and can mean either expenditures or publications in a general sense. The possessive kiadásaik explicitly marks ownership by a plural subject.
