Néhányan

Néhányan is a Hungarian pronoun. It translates to "some" or "a few" in English, when referring to people. It is the plural form of "néhány," which means "some" or "a few" when referring to things.

The pronoun "néhányan" is used when the speaker is referring to an unspecified number of people who are part of a larger group. For example, "Néhányan eljöttek a buliba" means "Some people came to the party." In this sentence, "néhányan" indicates that not everyone attended, but a subset of individuals did.

It functions as an indefinite pronoun, meaning it does not specify who those individuals are. The context usually clarifies the group from which these "some" people are drawn. It can be used as the subject of a sentence or as the object. For instance, "A tanár néhányan megdicsérte" would translate to "The teacher praised a few of them," where "néhányan" is the object.

The use of "néhányan" is common in everyday Hungarian conversation and writing. It provides a way to refer to a portion of a group without needing to be specific. It is a fundamental part of Hungarian grammar for expressing indefinite quantities of people.
