tömegeket

Tömegeket is the accusative plural form of the Hungarian noun tömeg, meaning mass, bulk or crowd. It is used when the masses or quantities described by tömeg are the direct object of a verb. For example, in a sentence like "A színpad előtt tömegeket láttunk," tömegeket functions as the direct object of láttunk (we saw crowds).

Morphology and usage notes: The plural nominative form of tömeg is tömegek. To form the accusative plural, Hungarian adds the suffix -eket to the plural stem, yielding tömegeket. The ending follows vowel harmony rules of Hungarian: tömegek → tömegeket. This form can refer to crowds of people or to large amounts of substances or quantities, depending on the context.

Semantic range: In everyday language, tömegeket often refers to large groups of people, such as at events or demonstrations. In scientific or technical contexts, tömegeket can mean masses of objects or measured weights, for example in a physics or engineering discussion.

Typical contexts: News reports describing crowds, event coverage, or social phenomena may use tömegeket to denote many people. Scientific writing might use tömegeket when discussing different masses or weights in an experiment.

Related forms: The singular forms tömeg (nominative) and tömege (accusative singular) are used for a single mass or crowd. The dative plural form tömegeknek means “to the masses,” which is a different grammatical case and meaning from tömegeket.
