névformákat

Névformákat, also known as névformák, refers to the various forms that names can take in Hungarian grammar. Hungarian is an agglutinative language, meaning that it forms words by adding suffixes to roots. This process is particularly evident in the inflection of nouns, which can change based on their grammatical case, number, and possession.

In Hungarian, nouns have six cases: nominative, accusative, dative, genitive, instrumental, and locative. The nominative case is used for the subject of a sentence, the accusative case for the direct object, the dative case for the indirect object, the genitive case for possession, the instrumental case for tools or means, and the locative case for locations. The form of the noun changes to indicate these different cases.

Nouns in Hungarian also have two numbers: singular and plural. The singular form is used for one item, while the plural form is used for more than one item. Possession in Hungarian is indicated by suffixes added to the noun, which can also change based on the possessor's number and case.

Névformákat is the accusative plural form of the noun névforma, which means "name form" or "noun form." This form is used when referring to multiple name forms as the direct object of a sentence. For example, "I have learned the névformákat of Hungarian nouns" would use the accusative plural form.

Understanding névformákat is crucial for anyone learning Hungarian, as it helps in constructing grammatically correct sentences and accurately conveying meaning.
