Conjugation

edit
  • Its conjugation is identical to that of dolgozik, except for the indefinite third-person singular indicative present (the dictionary form itself) and the lack of the additional forms that are possible only with the -ik conjugation (-om/-zam/-nám in indefinite first-person singular forms in the three moods and -ék in indefinite third-person singular subjunctive present, most of which forms are literary or archaic in style).
  • Its regular verbal noun form dolgozás rarely occurs outside of prefixed compounds (átdolgozás, kidolgozás etc.), and an etymologically unrelated noun, munka is usually applied for this purpose.
