többieknek

Többieknek is a Hungarian grammatical form that translates roughly as “to the others” or “for the rest.” It is the dative plural form of the pronoun többiek, which means “the others” or “the remaining people.” The form is used to indicate the indirect object or beneficiary of an action.

Morphology and usage notes: The base noun többiek denotes a group other than the speaker or the subject under discussion. To express “to the others,” the dative plural suffix -nek is added, yielding többieknek. This follows the standard Hungarian pattern for forming the dative plural after a stem ending in -ek. In a sentence, többleeknek typically appears as the recipient of an action, often with verbs like küldeni (to send), mondani (to tell), adni (to give), or elmagyarázni (to explain).

Common usages: Többieknek is used when addressing or referring to other people aside from the speaker. It can stand alone as a prepositional complement or appear with a possessive or descriptive modifier, as in többleeiknek szánt ajándék (gifts intended for the others) or a beszéd, amivel a többieknek szólt (the speech that was addressed to the others).

Examples: A többieknek is elmondtam a terveimet. I also told my plans to the others. Küldtem egy üzenetet a többieknek. I sent a message to the others. Az ünnepségen a többieknek is beszéltem. At the ceremony I also spoke to the others.

See also: Related forms include többi (the rest) and többiek (the others) in other grammatical cases. In Hungarian usage, többieknek typically functions as a datival complement to indicate the recipients of an action.
