Szavazzon

Szavazzon is the formal imperative singular form of the Hungarian verb szavazni, meaning to vote. It is used when addressing a single person in a polite, formal manner, such as in official communications, election information, or broadcast messages that require respectful language. The form is created from the stem szavaz- plus the polite imperative suffix -zon, giving szavazzon; the spelling reflects the root ending in z and the affix -on, which can yield a double z in writing.

Usage and nuance: Szavazzon is appropriate in contexts where a courteous tone is desired and the speaker intends to address the listener as an individual in a formal register. It is not used in informal speech, where the informal singular imperative szavazz would be used instead. In plural formal contexts, analogous forms such as szavazzatok would be used, depending on the level of formality and the number of listeners.

Examples: Public notices or voter information might say, for instance, “Kérem, szavazzon az Ön szerint legmegfelelőbb jelöltre.” Media or campaign materials may employ szavazzon to encourage participation while maintaining politeness toward the audience.

Relation to related terms: szavazni denotes the general action of voting, szavazat refers to a ballot or vote, and szavazó describes a voter. Szavazzon thus represents a specific, formal command form within this family of words, commonly encountered in civic and political messaging in Hungarian.
