elfogadnak

Elfogadnak is the third-person plural present tense form of the Hungarian verb elfogad. The verb means to accept, approve, or adopt something offered or proposed, such as an invitation, a proposal, a decision, or a law. The prefix el- adds a sense of completion or definitiveness to the base verb fogad (to receive or accept), yielding a sense of having completed the act of accepting. Elfogadnak is transitive and requires a direct object in the accusative when the thing being accepted is explicit.

In usage, elfogadnak is common in formal, political, and organizational contexts, where a group or authority accepts an offer, proposal, or rule. It can express either the acceptance of a current offer or the deliberate adoption of a policy or measure. The form is neutral in tone and can appear in news reports, official statements, or internal deliberations. Negation is formed with nem fogadják el or nem fogadják, depending on the phrasing, and other tense forms are built from the same verb root.

Related forms include elfogad (the non-conjugated base), elfogadom, elfogadod, elfogadja (various singular persons), and elfogadók (a plural noun form describing people who accept). The noun elfogadás denotes the act of accepting or adopting, while elfogadó describes a person inclined to accept. The word is a common tool in discussions of agreements, approvals, and formal commitments.
