kapcsolataikat

Kapcsolataikat is a Hungarian noun phrase meaning “their relationships” in a definite direct object position. It is formed from the base word kapcsolatok or kapcsolat, which means relationship or connection, combined with the third-person plural possessive suffix -aik to indicate ownership by multiple subjects. When the direct object is definite, a further suffix -t is added, yielding kapcsolataikat. Thus, the form signals both plurality of the possessor and definiteness of the object.

In use, kapcsolataikat functions as the direct object of a transitive verb and appears in contexts such as diplomacy, business, or sociology where a specific set of relationships is under discussion. The definite -t indicates that the speaker and listener are referring to particular relationships known in the discourse, as opposed to a general or indefinite set.

Examples:

- Meg kell erősíteni kapcsolataikat. (We need to strengthen their relationships.)

- A diplomaták megvitatták kapcsolataikat a szövetségeseikkel. (The diplomats discussed their relationships with their allies.)

- A vállalat felmérte kapcsolataikat a beszállítóival. (The company assessed its/their relationships with its suppliers.)

Notes: kapcsolataikat is the plural form corresponding to a plural possessor; other forms exist for different persons and definiteness, such as indefinite possessive phrases (kapcsolataik) or other case endings depending on syntactic function.
