Változzon

változzon is a Hungarian verb form used to express a wish, expectation, or polite command, typically in formal or literary contexts. It is the present subjunctive form for the third person singular of the verb változni (to change, to vary). In English, it conveys a sense of “may it change” or “let it change.”

Formation and spelling are characteristic of Hungarian subjunctive mood. The stem is változ-, and the present subjunctive suffix -zzon is attached, yielding változzon. The word is written with a double z due to assimilation after the stem ending in z.

Usage and function: változzon appears in subordinate clauses introduced by hogy, to express wishes or hypothetical outcomes, and can also function as a formal, jussive imperative in direct address. Examples include: “Azt szeretném, hogy változzon meg a törvény” (I would like the law to change) and “Változzon meg a hozzáállás” (Let the attitude change). It signals desire, possibility, or a directive rather than a simple assertion.

Related forms and inflections: The mood’s other persons and numbers include változzunk (we let/change), változzatok (you plural let/change), and változzanak (they let/change). These forms share the same stem and subjunctive suffix pattern.
