Mutassák

Mutassák is a Hungarian verb form belonging to the verb mutat, meaning “to show” or “to demonstrate.” It is the third-person plural present subjunctive of mutat and is used in subordinate clauses to express wishes, requests, obligations, or hypothetical actions, often after verbs of asking, directing, or stating requirements.

In usage, mutassák appears in sentences that require a non-indicative mood, especially after words like kérjük, hogy, reméljük, hogy, vagy a kifejezésekben, amelyeket útmutatásokban és szerződésekben találhatunk. The form signals that the showing or presenting is being requested or mandated rather than asserted as a fact. It commonly occurs in formal or instructional Hungarian, including administrative, academic, and legal contexts.

Examples include:

- Kérjük, mutassák be a tervet a bizottságnak. (Please present the plan to the committee.)

- A pályázati kiírás szerint mutassák be a projekt költségvetését részletesen.

- Szeretnénk, hogy mutassák be az eredményeket a konferencián.

Relation to other forms: mutatnak is the present indicative form meaning “they show.” The imperative form for a directive addressed to “you (plural)” is mutassátok be; the third-person singular subjunctive forms include mutasson, mutasson meg, depending on prefixation. Mutassák thus represents a mood and person combination distinct from the indicative, used to express non-assertive or desired actions within formal contexts.
