• This verb is a member of one of those (few) quasi-homonymous verb pairs that exist both with and without an-ik ending. All (intransitive) suffixed forms of these pairs are identical (sometimes they can even have derived forms that coincide), with the exception of their dictionary form (the third-person singular indicative present, with or without-ik). However, the meaning of these pairs is usually distinct, sometimes unrelated. Examples include(fel)áldoz–(le)áldozik,bán–bánik,(meg)bíz–(meg)bízik,(meg)ér–(meg)érik,esz(rare)–eszik,hajol–hajlik,hasonul–(meg)hasonlik,(felül)múl–(el)múlik,(hozzá)nyúl–nyúlik,(el)vesz–(el)veszik~(el)vész, andtör–törik (along with their verbal prefixes),hall–hallik(archaic),érez–érzik(archaic), sometimes with some difference:(el)hibáz–hibádzik,(le)torkol–torkollik. Therefore one may well need to check the context and the arguments to ascertain which member of the verb pair is relevant.
• This verb is called a pseudo-ik verb, as its-ik ending presents itself only in the 3rd-person singular (indicative present) form, but it is not an-ik verb in any other aspect. As a result, it cannot take the-om/-em/-öm ending in the 1st-person singular (indicative present) form, even in the most erudite style, only-ok/-ek/-ök. Naturally, the optional-m ending cannot appear, either, in their subjunctive or conditional 1st-person singular forms, so only-jak/-jek and-nék is possible in these respective forms. These verbs include the following:bomlik,(el)bújik,(meg)érik,(le)folyik,(össze)gyűlik,hazudik,(le)hull(ik),(bele)/(oda)illik,(meg)jelenik,(el)kopik,(el)múlik,ömlik,(meg)születik,(meg)szűnik,(meg)telik,tojik,(el)törik,(el)/(fel)tűnik,(el)válik, and(el)züllik.(Ki)nyílik partially belongs here, as it cannot take the first-person-om ending but it can take the third-person-jék.
