Terhesekre

Terhesekre is a Hungarian linguistic form that functions as a directional or scope-bearing phrase involving a specific social group. It is built from the adjective terhes (pregnant) plus the plural suffix ek to form terhesek (the pregnant people) and the directional suffix re, giving terhesekre, roughly “to the pregnant people” or “toward the pregnant people.” In practice, this construction appears mainly in formal, grammatical, or administrative contexts rather than in everyday conversation.

In Hungarian grammar, terhesekre illustrates how the language combines an adjective with a plural noun and a directional suffix to indicate reference to or contact with a group. The form is most commonly found with verbs or phrases that express applicability, direction, or focus, such as vonatkozik (applies to) or related expressions. Because the more common way to express “to/for pregnant women” is terhes nőknek or terheseknek, terhesekre tends to appear in specific legal, instructional, or descriptive contexts where a directional nuance is intended.

Usage notes: terhesekre is understood by native speakers and can appear in official texts, guidelines, or legal language. It should be distinguished from the standard dative or allative forms (e.g., terheseknek) which convey “to/for” rather than a directional or target-facing sense.
