mirigyeinek

Mirigyeinek is a Hungarian term that functions as the possessive form of mirigy (gland) in the plural. It is used to indicate that the glands belong to a third-person plural subject, roughly translating as “their glands” in English. The word appears in scientific writing and medical texts when discussing glands belonging to a group or to a subject described in the plural.

Mirigyek is the plural nominative form of mirigy, and mirigyeinek is the corresponding possessive form used to denote ownership by a plural subject. The noun mirigy itself comes from Latin glandula and is the common Hungarian word for a gland, encompassing both endocrine and exocrine glands. In context, mirigyeinek typically refers to glands possessed by people, animals, or other organisms discussed in a plural sense.

In usage, mirigyeinek commonly appears in anatomy, physiology, and veterinary or comparative biology writings. It allows precise reference to glands that are attributed to a group rather than to a single individual. Example sentences include: “A mirigyeinek működése befolyásolja a hormonális egyensúlyt” (The function of their glands influences hormonal balance) and “Az állatok mirigyeinek vizsgálata segít megérteni a fajspecifikus különbségeket” (The study of the animals’ glands helps understand species-specific differences).
