hordákban

Hordókban is a Hungarian locative plural form of the noun hordó, meaning "barrel." It denotes being inside or within multiple barrels and is a grammatical construction rather than a separate concept. The phrase is commonly used in contexts related to storage, aging, or handling of liquids and other contents kept in barrels, such as wine or spirits.

Etymology and grammar: hordó means barrel. To form the plural, the suffix -k is added, yielding hordók. The locative case, indicating location inside something, is expressed with the suffix -ban or -ben, depending on phonology. Combined, hordókban literally means "in barrels" (inside the barrels). Hungarian uses locative forms to specify where an action takes place, and hordókban can modify verbs or serve as the object of a sentence in passive or impersonal constructions.

Usage: The term appears in technical, industrial, or culinary language, especially when describing processes involving barrels. Examples:

- A bort hordókban érlelik. (The wine is aged in barrels.)

- A likőrt hordókban tárolják. (The liqueur is stored in barrels.)

The form is precise for indicating location inside several containers and contrasts with singular locatives like hordóban (in the barrel).

See also: Related forms include hordóban (in the barrel) for singular, and other locative constructions in Hungarian. The plural locative is part of the broader system of case endings used to express location and related meanings.
