bogyónak

Bogyónak is the dative singular form of the Hungarian noun bogyó, meaning “berry.” In Hungarian, nouns inflect for case, and the dative marks the indirect object or recipient of an action. The dative suffix is -nak/-nek, chosen according to vowel harmony; for a stem ending in a long vowel, the result is bogyónak, with the stem vowel preserved.

The corresponding plural dative is bogyóknak (to the berries). The base noun bogyó is native to Hungarian, and bogyónak is formed by attaching the appropriate dative suffix to the stem.

Usage examples include sentences like “A bogyónak adtam vizet,” meaning “I gave water to the berry,” and “A bogyóknak adtam vizet,” meaning “I gave water to the berries.” Such forms are standard for indicating the recipient of an action in Hungarian, though they may appear infrequently in everyday speech outside literal or linguistic contexts.
