kezdejenek

Kezdejenek is a nonstandard form found in Hungarian online text and informal writing. It is not part of standard dictionaries and is generally regarded as a misspelling or a deliberate stylistic variant of the correct form kezdjenek, which means “let them begin” in the subjunctive mood.

Etymology and linguistic notes. The standard Hungarian verb kezdeni (to begin) has the third-person plural present subjunctive form kezdjenek. The variant kezdejenek adds an extra vowel between the z and d consonants, creating a nonstandard spelling. Such orthographic deviations often arise from rapid typing, phonetic interpretation, or meme-driven manipulation of language. While it resembles a plausible inflected form, kezdejenek does not reflect regular Hungarian morphology and lacks formal recognition.

Usage and perception. Kezdejenek appears primarily in informal contexts—online forums, comments, memes, and fan fiction—where speakers experiment with spelling for emphasis, humor, or satire. In these settings it can signal urgency, mock solemnity, or communal in-jokes. However, it can also hinder clarity and is generally avoided in formal writing, education materials, or official communication.

Related terms. The standard form kezdenek or kezdjenek is the correct imperative/subjunctive variant in normal Hungarian usage. Kezdejenek thus serves as a cautionary example of how casual language variation can create nonstandard forms that circulate in certain communities.
