Tulajdonoljanak

Tulajdonoljanak is a Hungarian verb form derived from tulajdonolni, meaning to own or possess. It is the third-person plural present subjunctive (alárendelt mód) of the verb, used in clauses that express wish, possibility, necessity, or hypothetical state. The form is built from the stem tulajdonol- with the subjunctive ending -janak, and it corresponds to the idea “that they own” or “should own” in a non-indicative context.

In practice, tulajdonoljanak appears mainly in formal, literary, or legal language, where sentences convey a desired or hypothetical outcome. It is less common in everyday speech, where speakers often opt for other constructions to express similar ideas. The present subjunctive contrasts with the indicative forms (for example, tulajdonolnak or tulajdonoljon in other persons or moods) and is part of a broader set of subjunctive endings that Hungarian uses to mark subordinate clauses introduced by verbs of wishing, hoping, or stipulation.

Usage notes:

- It is most typical in subordinate clauses introduced by verbs of desire, demand, or hypothetical assessment, often preceded by kizárólagosságos vagy olyan; it may also appear in legal or policy-related text to express recommended or assumed states.

- In contemporary prose, the form can appear in speculatively tinted sentences or when the author aims for a formal tone. In ordinary dialogue, speakers usually employ alternative constructions to avoid subjunctive mood.

Example sentences:

- A felek úgy döntöttek, hogy tulajdonoljanak közös tulajdonrészeket.

- A törvény arra kötelezi, hogy a tulajdonosi jogokat olyan módon gyakorolják, hogy minden tag tulajdonoljanak közös részt.
