olyanoknál

olyanoknál is a Hungarian locative form derived from the demonstrative determiner olyan meaning “such,” combined with the plural ending -ok to yield olyanok (“those ones”) and the locative plural ending -nál to express location relative to that group. In short, olyanoknál means “at those ones” or “near those ones” and is used to anchor a statement to a previously identified set of referents described as “such ones.”

Morphologically, the construction proceeds as follows: base adjective/determiner olyan + plural suffix -ok gives the plural demonstrative sohásonsként vagy telszerűen olyanok, and attaching the locative -nál yields olyanoknál. This form behaves like other Hungarian locative pronouns, functioning as a prepositional phrase that marks location or relational proximity to the referenced group.

Semantically, olyanoknál signals that the relevance or occurrence of an action, property, or observation is tied to the particular subset described by “such ones.” The exact interpretation depends on context, including what nouns or predicates accompany the phrase and whether the speaker is emphasizing proximity, presence, or relevance to that group.

Usage notes: olyanoknál tends to appear in discourse where a subset has already been established or contrasted with other groups. It can co-occur with verbs or predicates that describe location, presence, or applicability of a statement to that subset. In many everyday contexts speakers may replace it with more explicit wording (for example, aż ezeknél a csoportoknál) if precision is desired.

Related forms include the base olyan (such), the plural olyanok, and other locative constructions ending with -nál/-nél.
