nyitják

Nyitják is a Hungarian verb form derived from nyitni, meaning to open. It is the present tense, third-person plural form used with a definite direct object. In Hungarian, when the object is definite, the verb takes the suffix -ják (or -ik, -ják depending on class), as in nyitják, which translates to “they open” or, with a definite object, “they open it.” If the object is indefinite, the form would be nyitnak (they open).

Usage and meaning: Nyitják denotes an action performed by multiple subjects (they) and requires a direct object to be specified in the sentence. The presence of a definite object typically marks nyitják as the correct form, for example, nyitják a boltot (they open the shop) or nyitják az ajtót (they open the door). Without a definite object, the sentence would usually use nyitnak (they open).

Context and nuances: Nyitják is common in everyday speech, journalism, and signage, especially when describing a group's action or a scheduled event. In headlines, the present tense form nyitják is frequently used to express future or planned actions in a concise way. The verb can be contrasted with megnyitják, which adds a nuance of “opening up” or inaugurating something formally.

Related forms: Other persons and moods use nyitni-related forms, such as nyitja (he/she opens it), nyitom (I open), nyitnak (they open, with an indefinite object). The prefix meg- in megnyitják changes the meaning to emphasize opening up or officially opening.

Examples: Este nyitják a boltot. Az ablakot nyitják ki. Nyitják meg a tárgyalást? These illustrate the definite-object usage and common contexts for nyitják.
