Beírtuk

Beírtuk is a Hungarian verb form derived from the verb beírni, meaning to enter in, inscribe, or log information in a record, form, or database. It denotes a completed action performed by the subject in the first person plural, i.e., “we entered” or “we typed in.” The form is used when describing a past action carried out by a group.

Beírtuk commonly appears in contexts such as adding a name to a list, entering data into a form, or recording details in a log. Examples include: Beírtuk a nevét a listába. (We entered his name into the list.) Beírtuk a jelszót a mezőbe. (We entered the password into the field.) The nuance of emphasis or definiteness can shift with context, particularly regarding whether the object is definite or indefinite.

Beírtuk as a word unit comprises the prefix be- meaning into or onto, the root ír meaning to write, and a past-tense suffix that marks first-person plural. It is one of the common verbal forms that arise from combining be- with verbs of writing or recording. In usage, beírtuk is understood in both formal and informal Hungarian contexts whenever a group action of entering or recording information has been completed.
