Átmehetsz

Átmehetsz is a Hungarian verb that translates to "you can cross" or "you may pass" in English. It is a modal verb used to express permission or the possibility of crossing a physical barrier or transitioning to a different state.

The verb is formed from the root "át" (across/over) and the verb "mehet" (can go). The "t" ending signifies the second-person singular informal pronoun "te" (you). Therefore, "átmehetsz" literally means "you can go across."

This phrase is commonly used in everyday situations. For example, if someone is waiting at a pedestrian crossing, another person might say "átmehetsz" to indicate that it is safe to cross the road. It can also be used metaphorically, such as when discussing someone's ability to transition into a new role or phase of life, implying they have the capacity or permission to do so. The context of the conversation will determine the precise meaning. The formal equivalent for addressing a single person or a group of people would be "átmehetnek" or "átmehettek" respectively, while the polite singular form would be "átmehet."
