It is the past tense, plural form of the verb feleltetni, which means to cause someone to answer, to question, or to have someone recite. The verb implies a situation where one or more individuals are being prompted to provide information or respond to a query. This can occur in various contexts, such as in an educational setting where a teacher questions a student, during an interrogation where authorities question a suspect, or in a more general social situation where someone is asked to explain their actions. The action of feleltettük suggests a deliberate act of eliciting a response from another party. It carries the nuance of putting someone on the spot or demanding an explanation. The specific meaning can be further clarified by the surrounding context in which the word is used.
