változtatásoknak

Változtatásoknak is a Hungarian grammatical form. It is the dative plural form of the noun változtatások, which means changes or modifications. The base noun változtatás comes from the verb változtat, “to change,” with the nominalizing suffix -ás. The plural nominative is változtatások, and the dative plural is formed with the suffix -nak/-nek, yielding változtatásoknak. This construction translates roughly as “to the changes” or “for the changes” and is used to mark the indirect object, beneficiary, or reference point of an action. It also appears in phrases such as in accordance with the changes or thanks to the changes.

In use, változtatásoknak commonly appears in formal or technical prose—policy documents, project plans, legislative texts, and administrative communications—where it signals that subsequent actions, evaluations, or conditions relate to the specified changes. It helps frame the relation between alterations and other elements in a sentence, such as requirements, timelines, or outcomes. For example, a sentence might read: A döntéshozók a változtatásoknak megfelelően módosították a szabályokat, meaning “The decision-makers revised the rules in accordance with the changes.” Another example is: A projektet a változtatásoknak köszönhetően sikerült befejezni, meaning “The project was completed thanks to the changes.”

Etymologically, the form illustrates Hungarian inflection, where nouns change shape to express case and number. Változtatásoknak is thus a routine, though context-dependent, part of discourse dealing with revisions and alterations.
