bemutatnak

Bemutatnak is a Hungarian verb form, specifically the present tense, third-person plural of bemutatni, meaning "to present" or "to introduce." It is used when the subject is plural and is performing the act of presenting or introducing something or someone.

Etymology and forms: Bemutatni is formed from mutat (to show) with the prefix be- and the infinitive suffix -ni. In the present tense, the stem bemutat- takes the third-person plural ending -nak, producing bemutatnak. This form corresponds to "they present" or "they introduce." Other related forms include bemutatok (I present), bemutatod (you present), bemutatja (he/she presents), and bemutatunk (we present).

Usage: Bemutatnak is used with objects or indirect objects depending on meaning. With a direct object, it means presenting something: bemutatnak egy új terméket (they present a new product). With an indirect object sense of introducing someone to someone else, it can take a dative-like construction: bemutatnak valakit valaminek/valakinek (they introduce someone to someone). The sentence can also express presenting information, ideas, or findings to an audience or group.

Examples:

- A kutatók bemutatnak egy új megoldást. (The researchers present a new solution.)

- A vezetők bemutatnak egy új kollégát a csapatnak. (The leaders introduce a new colleague to the team.)

- Ők bemutatnak valakit a hallgatóságnak. (They introduce someone to the audience.)

Notes: Bemutatnak is the plural present form; other tenses are bemutattak (past), bemutatják (present with third-person plural formal), and bemutatnián (infinitive). The prefix be- in bemutatni often signals presenting something to someone.
