Korlátosak

Korlátosak is a term in Hungarian that may function as a plural noun or as a coined proper noun in specific contexts. In general usage, korlátosak is derived from korlátos, an adjective meaning "limited" or "bounded," with the plural suffix -ak. The combination yields a form that can be translated roughly as "the bounded ones" or "the limited ones." The word is uncommon as a stand-alone common noun in standard Hungarian and is mostly seen in phrases describing groups by their constraints rather than as a fixed label.

In mathematical and scientific language, korlátos describes objects with a bound, such as korlátos függvény (bounded function) or korlátos halmaz (bounded set). In such contexts, the plural form korlátosak is not a conventional technical term; when a writer uses it as a noun, it is typically a stylistic or metaphorical choice rather than a standard term.

In literature or fiction, korlátosak can be used as a coined name for a fictional group, faction, or organization. In that usage, it functions as a proper noun with meaning set by the author, and its interpretation depends on the narrative.

Etymology: The adjective korlátos comes from korlát, meaning barrier or limit, with the adjectival suffix -os; the plural suffix -ak forms korlátosak.
