felléphetnek

Felléphetnek is a Hungarian verb form that expresses possibility or permission for multiple subjects to perform or appear on stage. It is the third-person plural form in the present potential mood, derived from the verb fellép, which means to appear on stage, to perform, or to take the stage. The suffix -hat/-het signals possibility, and the ending -nek marks a plural subject. The corresponding singular form is felléphet (he or she may perform) and the plural form is felléphetnek (they may perform).

The form is common in neutral or informative contexts such as event schedules, press notes, and program descriptions. It communicates that a performance by the listed subjects is possible under current conditions, without asserting that it will definitely happen. Because it expresses modal meaning, it is often used in reports about lineups, eligibility, or planning discussions.

Examples include:

- Az idei fesztiválon több külföldi zenekar felléphet. (Several foreign bands may perform at this year’s festival.)

- A vendégművészek felléphetnek a megnyitón. (The guest artists may perform at the opening.)

Felléphetnek can be contrasted with felléphet, the singular form for one subject, and with forms lacking the -hat/-het suffix, which would express a definite or future action rather than a possibility. In Hungarian grammar, felléphetnek illustrates how the language encodes modality and plurality within verb morphology.
