Zenéket

Zenéket is the Hungarian grammatical form that denotes the definite direct object in the plural of the noun zene (music). It is not a separate concept or a proper noun; rather, it is the specific suffixal combination used when referring to a particular set of musical works.

In Hungarian, the definite direct object is marked with the suffix -t, and the plural noun carries the suffix -k. When combined, they yield forms such as zenéket to indicate “the songs” or “the pieces of music” that are being acted upon in a sentence. The use of zenéket typically appears after verbs of perception, transmission, or action directed at a defined set of music items, such as hallgatni (to listen to), hallgatom a zenéket (I listen to the songs).

Examples:

- Az új zenéket hallgatom. (I am listening to the new songs.)

- A zenéket a rádióban játszották. (The songs were played on the radio.)

Relation to other forms:

- Zenék is the indefinite plural or non-definite form referring generally to music pieces.

- The definite direct object marker -t combines with plural -k to form -ket, as in zenéket, with related forms existing for different nouns and number/definiteness.
