Hungarian
Etymology
felszólító (“imperative”) + mód (“mood”)
Pronunciation
Noun

- (grammar) imperative mood
- Coordinate terms: kijelentő mód, feltételes mód, kötőmód
Usage notes
Although the term literally means “imperative mood”, it tends to be used in a broader sense especially in the description of Hungarian, referring to the full paradigm with first-person and third-person forms, which are often expressed with the subjunctive mood or by other means in several other languages, including a modal auxiliary (“should”, “shall”) or let's in English. Hence, this term can be viewed as a merger of the imperative and the subjunctive moods, excluding the conditional (a distinct verb paradigm in Hungarian). The subjunctive mood has no genuine equivalent in Hungarian grammar, as its functions are shared between this broader “imperative” and the conditional.
Declension
- For the noun, see mód.
- The adjective felszólító remains unchanged.
