"The women are writing the good book."

Translation: A nők írják a jó könyvet.

Why is the very irjak in the middle of the sentence? I can never seem tog et down when the verb goes in the middle or end of the sentence. I always put it at the end.

You can put it at the end in this case.

Ok thank you

Think of it this way: whatever you put in front of the verb gets emphasized. So, when you "put the verb at the end", in fact you are putting what was at the end in front of the verb, thereby putting extra emphasis on it.

Why not "A nõk jó könyvet írnak" ?

[Ksenia139960]

That is also correct

I'm not Hungarian, but doesn't the third person verb conjugation "nek"/"nak" only apply to indefinite objects? If there's a "t" at the end of "könyv" that makes it an accusative object and thus the verb ending ják or ik ought to apply, if Ive understood this correctly.

EDIT: Nevermind, now that I'm looking at the sentence i see that the definite article has been shifted away from the book and onto the women.
Man this stuff is tricky.

Why is "A jó könyvet írják a nők " wrong?
