Felírhatod

Felírhatod is a Hungarian verb form meaning “you can write down” or “you may write down.” It is derived from the verb felírni, which broadly means to write down, to enroll, or to register. The form expresses potentiality or possibility directed at the second person singular.

Morphology and construction: felírhatod is built from the verb stem ír (to write) with the prefix fel-, which often indicates a direction toward completion or a document-related action, combined with the potential mood suffix -hat/-het and the second-person singular ending -od. In practice, felírhatod functions as “you can write down” and appears in sentences that give permission or state a possible action for the person addressed.

Usage: This form is used in everyday Hungarian when indicating that someone is able or allowed to write something down. It commonly appears in notes, instructions, or reminders. Examples include: Felírhatod a nevedet a listára. (You can write down your name on the list.) Ha nem emlékszel, felírhatod a telefonszámát. (If you don’t remember, you can write down their phone number.)

Notes: As with other -hat/-het forms in Hungarian, felírhatod is a finite form tailored to second-person singular and does not stand alone as a lexical headword outside a sentence. It is primarily used in direct address to indicate possibility or permission regarding the action of writing something down.
