Utóbbiak

Utóbbiak is a Hungarian term that functions primarily as a demonstrative referring to a group of items mentioned previously and situated later in a sequence. In ordinary usage, utóbbiak translates roughly as "the latter ones" or "the ones that come after" and is used to distinguish a subset from another group that has already been introduced, such as az előzőek (the former).

For example, in sentences: "Két lehetőség közül az utóbbi a megoldás." (Among two options, the latter is the solution.) "A beszámolóban az utóbbiak kerültek kiemelésre." (In the report, the latter ones were highlighted.) "Az első változatot elvetették; az utóbbi maradt." (The first variant was rejected; the latter remained.)

Utóbbiak typically contrasts with az előzőek (the former); it signals a referent that follows in a sequence or discussion. It is common in formal or analytical writing, reporting, and comparative arguments. The term remains relatively neutral and does not itself imply value judgment unless framed by surrounding context.

Because utóbbiak is not a proper name, there is no widely recognized real-world group by that name. If capitalized as a proper noun in fiction or media, Utóbbiak would usually designate a fictional faction or collective created by an author.
