kártyákon

Kártyákon is a Hungarian grammatical form: it is the locative plural of the noun kártya, meaning “on the cards.” It is used to indicate the location of something on the surfaces of several cards, and can refer to playing cards, educational flashcards, or any set of cards.

Morphology and usage: The base noun kártya has a plural form kártyák. To express “on the cards,” the locative plural suffix -on attaches to the plural stem, yielding kártyákon. This form follows Hungarian vowel harmony rules and serves to mark location without a separate preposition in many contexts.

Typical contexts: kártyákon appears in descriptions of what is printed or shown on cards, on card sets in games, or in educational materials. For example, A kártyákon láthatók a szimbólumok. (The symbols are visible on the cards.) Another example: A memóriajátékban a kártyákon lévő képek alapján keresnek. (In the memory game, they search based on the pictures on the cards.)

Notes: kártyákon is a purely inflected form of kártya, not a standalone verb or fixed phrase. It is commonly encountered in written and spoken Hungarian when specifying location relative to multiple cards. The singular corresponding form is kártyán (on the card).
