megemlítend

Megemlítend is a Hungarian linguistic term used to describe a verbal adjective formed from the verb megemlíteni, meaning to mention again. It denotes something that is to be mentioned or that should be mentioned. In contemporary Hungarian, the attributive form is usually megemlítendő; megemlítend may appear in older texts, in dictionaries as a stem, or in syntactic descriptions.

Morphology and formation: The form is built from the verb megemlíteni with a participial ending. The suffix -endő yields a present-participial adjective indicating obligation or relevance to be mentioned. The base form megemlítend can thus be found in analytic discussions as the stem from which megemlítendő is derived.

Usage: Meigemlítend is primarily encountered in formal, analytical, or linguistic contexts, such as lists or clauses that specify items to be mentioned. Example: A megemlítendő tételek listája. Here megemlítendő modifies tételek to express “the items to be mentioned.” In standard modern spelling, megemlítendő is preferred; megemlítend appears mainly as a stem in reference materials.

Notes: In everyday language, speakers more often express the idea with phrases such as “amelyet meg kell említeni” or “amelyet fel kell tüntetni.” The term megemlítend is of interest mainly to linguists, grammarians, and advanced learners examining Hungarian participial constructions and formal adjectives.
