amelyek

Amelyek is a Hungarian relative pronoun that introduces a relative clause referring to a plural antecedent. It functions similarly to the English “which” or “those which” and is used primarily for things and some animals. For people, Hungarian typically uses aki/akik rather than amelyek.

As a plural form, amelyek marks the relative pronoun for a plural noun phrase within the relative

Usage examples:

- A könyvek, amelyek érdekelnek, a polcon vannak. (The books which interest me are on the shelf.)

- Az autók, amelyeket láttam, mind új modellek. (The cars which I saw are all new models.)

- A városokról, amelyeket hallottam, sokat meséltek. (About the cities I heard of, they told many stories.)

In sentences with a preposition, the relative clause can use forms like amelyről, amelyben, amelyeket, etc., to
