reflexek

Reflexek is the Hungarian plural form of the noun reflex, used to denote reflex actions or responses in living beings. The term appears in medical, anatomical, and physiological contexts when referring to multiple reflexes observed in a patient or study subject.

Etymology: The base word reflex is a loanword in Hungarian, ultimately derived from Latin reflexus, with common intermediaries such as French reflexe or English reflex. In Hungarian spelling, nouns of foreign origin that end in -x typically form their plurals with -ek, producing reflexek.

Usage: Reflexek occurs in Hungarian-language texts on neurology, physiology, and comparative anatomy. For example, a clinician might report "a térdreflexek vizsgálata" (the examination of knee reflexes). As a loanword within Hungarian syntax, reflexek follows the regular plural agreement rules of Hungarian nouns.

Alternative form: In English and other languages, the plural is reflexes. The term reflexek reflects Hungarian grammatical and orthographic conventions rather than a separate scientific concept.
