Vonhatóak

Vonhatóak is the plural predicate form of the Hungarian adjective vonható, meaning towable or pullable. The base vonható is formed from the verb vonni (to pull) with the suffix -ható, which marks capability or possibility. The plural ending -ak (-ek/-ök according to vowel harmony) is added when the subject of the sentence is plural, producing vonhatóak to describe multiple items that can be towed.

Morphology and usage considerations: Vonhatóak is used to describe several objects that are capable of being pulled or drawn by a vehicle or another mechanism. It is common in technical, transportation, and mechanical contexts, where items such as vehicles, trailers, or loads may be referred to as towable. In a sentence, the form typically appears in predicative position after a plural subject or in a clause stating capability, for example, Ezek a járművek vonhatóak a vontatóval.

Examples: Ezek a járművek vonhatóak. These vehicles are towable. A kis pótkocsi és a teherjármű vonhatóak egy vontatóval. The small trailer and the heavy vehicle are towable with a tow vehicle.

Etymology and related forms: The form vonhatóak derives from vonni (to pull) plus the derivational suffix -ható, which expresses capability. This pattern is part of a broader Hungarian system that forms adjectives indicating possibility (such as olvasható “readable,” írható “writeable”). Related terms include vonó (tow/tow line), vontatás (towing), and vontató (tow vehicle).
