hangsúlyozd

Hangsúlyozd is the second-person singular imperative form of the Hungarian verb hangsúlyoz, which means to emphasize or to stress. The word is used when instructing someone to place particular importance on a point, fact, or detail in speech, writing, or presentation. As an imperative, hangsúlyozd functions as a direct command or request directed at one person.

The base verb hangsúlyoz is transitive and typically takes a direct object or a clause introduced by hogy to indicate what should be emphasized. The imperative hangsúlyozd is formed by adding the suffix -d to the stem hangsúlyoz, resulting in a concise, action-oriented instruction. The underlying noun hangsúly means emphasis or stress, and the word combines with súly, weight, in a figurative sense to convey the idea of giving weight to a point.

Usage and nuance: hangsúlyozd is commonly used in educational contexts, journalism, editing, public speaking, and written guidance where someone is asked to draw attention to a key element. It can apply to emphasizing a fact, a recommendation, a main argument, or a thematic point. In formal or professional writing, similar directives may be conveyed with phrases such as hangsúlyozd ki a lényeget or hangsúlyozd a fő üzenetet, depending on style and register.

See also: hangsúly (emphasis), kiemelés (highlighting), kiemel (to highlight). The imperative form is specific to the second-person singular and contrasts with other conjugations such as hangsúlyoz (present tense he/she emphasizes) or hangsúlyozzák (they emphasize).
