Újságokra

Újságokra is a Hungarian inflected form of the noun újság (newspaper). It represents the plural allative case, indicating direction toward or to the newspapers. The form is built from the plural stem újságok plus the allative suffix -ra/-re, here producing -okra. In English this is commonly rendered as “to the newspapers” or “onto the newspapers.”

Morphology and usage

In Hungarian, case endings express various grammatical relations without prepositions. The allative suffix -ra/-re marks direction toward a destination, recipient, or focus. For plural nouns, the suffix attaches to the plural stem, yielding újságokra. This form is typically used with verbs that describe pointing, directing attention, placing items toward newspapers, or indicating a focus on newspapers as a group.

Examples

- Az újságokra mutatott. (He pointed at the newspapers.)

- A sajtófigyelés az újságokra irányult. (Media monitoring focused on the newspapers.)

- A kiadvány felhívta a figyelmet az újságokra. (The publication drew attention to the newspapers.)

Notes

Újságokra is one of several Hungarian forms derived from újság, which also include other cases for different relational meanings, such as újságokban (in the newspapers) or újságokra (to/onto the newspapers). The allative form helps make explicit the direction or target of an action without relying on separate prepositions in many contexts.
