Leírtaknak

Leírtaknak is a Hungarian inflected form derived from the past participle leírt, meaning “written.” When leírtak (the written ones) is used as a noun phrase referring to those who have been described or written about, adding the dative plural suffix -nak (or -nek, depending on vowel harmony) yields leírtaknak. The form therefore means “to the written ones” or “for the written ones.” It is used to indicate the indirect object or the beneficiary of an action.

Morphology and use: The base leírtak functions as a plural noun meaning “the written ones.” The dative plural suffix attaches to this noun form, producing leírtaknak. This construction is typical in contexts where a text or description is being addressed to or intended for the subjects of writing, such as readers, subjects of a study, or described parties. The usage is specialized and more common in linguistic analysis, academic writing, or critical discussion than in everyday language.

Examples:

- A szerző a leírtaknak címzett visszajelzést vár. (The author expects feedback addressed to the written ones.)

- A kiadvány a leírtaknak szóló tájékoztatót tartalmazza. (The publication contains information addressed to the written ones.)
