címzetteknek

Címzetteknek is a Hungarian grammatical form that functions as the dative plural of the noun címzett, meaning addressee or recipient. The base címzett refers to the person or people to whom something is addressed, such as a letter, email, or message. The form címzetteknek indicates “to the addressees” or “for the addressees,” and is used to express the recipient group in a sentence.

In Hungarian, the nominative plural of címzett is címzettek, and the dative is formed by adding the suffix nek to this plural stem, yielding címzetteknek. This construction appears with verbs and actions that involve giving, sending, informing, or addressing the recipients. For example: A levelet a címzetteknek küldtem. (I sent the letter to the addressees.) A címzetteknek szóló közlemény itt olvasható. (The notice addressed to the addressees is readable here.) Kell küldeni egy értesítést a címzetteknek. (We need to send a notification to the recipients.)

Etymology and usage note: címzett derives from a sense of “the person who is addressed” in correspondence and communications. The form címzetteknek is typical in formal or written Hungarian when specifying which group of recipients is involved, particularly in official notices, emails, and documents.
