mutatkozhat

Mutatkozhat is a Hungarian verb form meaning may appear, could reveal itself, or might become evident. It is used to express that a phenomenon, event, trait, or result has a possibility of showing itself, rather than stating that it will certainly happen. The form can apply to physical appearances, symptoms, trends, or behaviors in a wide range of contexts, from science and analysis to everyday discourse.

Grammatically, mutatkozhat is formed by adding the potential suffix -hat/-het to the stem of mutatkozik, yielding a present-tense form that expresses possibility. It is the third-person singular form, but its subject can be implicit or specified by a noun in the sentence. The suffix follows Hungarian vowel harmony rules, and the clause can be timed with adverbs such as a jövő hónapban or a következő negyedévben.

Usage notes: mutatkozhat is appropriate when signaling uncertainty about whether something will become visible or detectable. It often appears in formal or analytical writing, but can also be used in ordinary speech when the speaker wants to emphasize possibility rather than certainty. In everyday language, one might alternatively use expressions like lehet, hogy mutatkozik or simpler phrases depending on the context.

Translations and related forms: the root mutatkozik means to appear or reveal oneself; mutatkozhat specifically conveys the possibility of appearance. Related forms include mutatkozhatnak (plural subject) and other modal constructions that express obligation, probability, or expectation in Hungarian.
