Elképzeljük

Elképzeljük is a Hungarian verb that translates to "we imagine," "we conceive," or "we picture" in English. It is the first-person plural present tense form of the verb elképzel. The verb itself is derived from the prefix "el-" which can indicate separation or completion, and "képzel," meaning "to imagine" or "to picture."

The primary use of elképzeljük is to express the collective act of forming a mental image or idea. It suggests a shared understanding or visualization among a group of people.

This implies a collective contemplation of a hypothetical scenario.

Beyond simple visualization, elképzeljük can also imply the process of planning, anticipating, or conceptualizing something. If a team is discussing a future project, they might use the verb to describe their shared vision for its outcome. "Elképzeljük, hogy ez a projekt sikeres lesz" means "We envision that this project will be successful." The verb carries a sense of shared mental construct or possibility. It is a common and versatile verb used in everyday Hungarian conversation to describe collective mental processes.
