kiejtésükben

Kiejtésükben is a Hungarian compound expression formed from the noun kiejtés (pronunciation) with the possessive suffix -ük (their) and the inessive suffix -ben (in). The resulting form means “in their pronunciation” and is used in linguistic contexts to refer to how a group of speakers pronounces words or sounds.

Morphologically, the word illustrates Hungarian agglutinative morphology, where multiple suffixes attach to a base noun to convey possessive and case information. Starting from kiejtés, the suffix -ük yields kiejtésük (their pronunciation), and adding -ben yields kiejtésükben (in their pronunciation). As with other Hungarian suffixes, the exact shape follows standard vowel harmony and syllable structure rules.

Usage and meaning in texts are typically descriptive, marking reference frames for pronunciation data. It often appears in studies of dialects, language contact, or phonetic variation, for example when comparing how different communities pronounce the same phonemes or words: A kutatók a kiejtésükben mutató regionális eltéréseket elemezték. The phrase is not a self-contained linguistic theory but a grammatical tool to specify the locus of pronunciation.

Notes: While common in analytic descriptions, kiejtésükben is primarily a textual device rather than a standalone concept. Its interpretation depends on context, usually referring to the pronunciations produced by a particular group of speakers.
