írókkal

órákkal is the plural instrumental form of the Hungarian noun óra, meaning clock or timepiece. In Hungarian, the instrumental case indicates the means or instrument by which an action is performed, or it can express accompaniment. The plural instrumental form órákkal is used when the action involves multiple clocks as the means or decorative element.

Morphology and usage: The base form óra has the plural órák. To form the plural instrumental, Hungarian adds the suffix -kkal to the plural stem, producing órákkal. The corresponding singular instrumental form is órával (with a clock). This pattern follows the general Hungarian rule of using -kkal/-kkel for the plural instrumental and -val/-vel for the singular instrumental, with adjustments for vowel harmony and spelling.

Examples: A szobát órákkal díszítették. (The room was decorated with clocks.) A kiállításon órákkal díszített tárgyakat láttak. (At the exhibition, objects decorated with clocks were seen.) These constructions illustrate how órákkal marks the means or decorative element in descriptive or narrative contexts, particularly in design, interior decoration, and museology.

Notes: órákkal is used specifically when referring to more than one clock. For a single clock, the form would be órával. The term appears most often in written descriptions, catalogs, and design-oriented prose, rather than casual speech.

Related forms: other plural instrumental nouns follow the same pattern (e.g., asztalokkal from asztal, könyvekkel from könyv). This form is a standard feature of Hungarian grammar for indicating instrumental plural means.
