kiterjednek

Kiterjednek is a Hungarian verb form: the third-person plural present indicative of the verb kiterjed. The meaning centers on extending, reaching, or spreading over a certain area or scope. It can describe physical dimensions, as well as abstract or organizational extents such as authority, influence, or topics covered.

The base verb kiterjed is formed with the prefix ki- added to terjed (to spread or extend), giving the sense of outward reach. The form kiterjednek thus marks that multiple subjects are performing the action in the present tense. In Hungarian, this kind of conjugation is common for intransitive verbs that describe the range or coverage of something, rather than transferring a direct object.

Usage and nuance: kiterjedek can refer to the geographic extent of a region or territory, the range of a jurisdiction, or the breadth of a study, project, or influence. It emphasizes the idea that boundaries or boundaries of applicability are expanding or already cover a certain domain. It is typically used in formal, descriptive, or analytical contexts, such as geography, law, planning, or research summaries. It is sometimes contrasted with terjed (to spread) or kiterjeszt (to extend/expand in a different sense, often implying deliberate enlargement).

Related terms include kiterjedés (extent or reach) and kiterjesztés (extension or expansion). These forms share the same semantic field but differ in nuance and grammatical function.

- A megyei hatóságok kiterjednek a szomszédos területekre.

- A kutatási program kiterjedése több szakterületre terjed ki.
