megfeleljenek

Megfeleljenek is a Hungarian verb form derived from the root meg- (a verbal prefix) and felel (to answer, correspond, be suitable). It is the third person plural present subjunctive/jussive form, often used in subordinate clauses to express wishes, demands, requirements or possibilities regarding multiple subjects. A literal translation is "that they comply" or "that they meet (requirements)."

Grammatically, megfeleljenek appears after verbs and expressions that require the subjunctive, such as követeljük, szeretnénk, or fontos, and commonly follows the conjunction hogy (that): for example, "Követeljük, hogy a termékek megfeleljenek a szabványoknak" ("We demand that the products meet the standards"). It contrasts with the indicative megfelelnek, which states a factual condition ("they comply/are complying").

In usage, megfeleljenek is frequent in formal, legal or bureaucratic contexts where conformity, standards or obligations are discussed, but it can also appear in everyday speech when expressing hopes or requests about a group. The approximate pronunciation in IPA is /mɛɡfɛlɛjɛnɛk/. Related forms include megfeleljen (third person singular subjunctive) and megfelelnek (third person plural indicative).
