Kölcsönözzenek

Kölcsönözzenek is a Hungarian verb form belonging to the verb kölcsönözni, meaning to lend something to someone. The form kölcsönözzenek represents the present subjunctive (jussive/optative) mood in the third person plural. It is used to express a wish, suggestion, or polite command directed at a group, roughly translating to “let them lend” or “may they lend,” depending on context.

Morphology and usage: The stem kölcsönöz- takes the subjunctive plural suffix -zenek, yielding kölcsönözzenek. This form is characteristic of more formal or literary Hungarian and is less common in everyday speech, where speakers might recast the idea with other constructions such as indirect requests or different mood choices.

Examples:

- Kölcsönözzenek nekünk tíz példányt a könyvből. (Let them lend us ten copies of the book.)

- Ha kölcsönözzenek neked eszközöket, kérlek, jelezd, és rendezhetjük a kölcsönzést. (If they could lend you tools, please let us know, and we can arrange the loan.)

Related forms and notes: Kölcsönözzenek is the 3rd person plural present subjunctive of kölcsönözni. The corresponding indicative form is kölcsönöznek (they lend). Other subjunctive forms exist for different persons and numbers, such as kölcsönözzön (3rd singular) in similar jussive contexts. The verb is part of the broader family around kölcsönzési (loan/borrowing) terminology in Hungarian.
