Felállítottuk

Felállítottuk is a Hungarian verb form that functions as the past-tense, first-person plural of the infinitive felállítani, meaning to set up, erect, or establish something. The form indicates that the action was completed by “we” in the past and is used with a direct object.

Etymology and grammar: The verb felállítani combines the prefix fel-, which conveys upward movement or completion, with the root állít, meaning to place or establish. The past-tense form felállítottuk marks the completion of the action by the first-person plural. As a transitive verb, it normally takes a direct object in the accusative (for example, a tent, a statue, a sign) and the word order can vary for emphasis, such as Felállítottuk a sátrat or A sátrat felállítottuk.

Usage: The expression is used in contexts involving physical erection or installation, as well as in organizational or procedural setups when described in the past. It is neutral in tone and appropriate in news reporting, narratives, and descriptive prose. Grammatically, felállítottuk refers to a completed action by a group and requires an object that was set up or established.

Examples:

- Felállítottuk a sátrat a kertben. (We set up the tent in the garden.)

- A szobrot a park közepén felállítottuk. (We erected the statue in the middle of the park.)

- A kezdeti terveket felállítottuk, és ennek megfelelően dolgoztunk tovább. (We established the initial plans and continued accordingly.)
