Figyelhetetek

Figyelhetetek is a Hungarian verb form derived from the infinitive figyelni, meaning to pay attention or to watch. It represents the potential mood in the second-person plural, indicating that the subject (you all) may be able to pay attention or could pay attention. In practical use, it translates roughly as “you may pay attention” or “you could pay attention,” depending on context.

Morphologically, figyelhetetek combines the verb stem figyel-, the potential suffix -het/-hhet, and the second-person plural suffix -etek. The form is finite and typically appears in present-time contexts, where the speaker expresses possibility or ability for the addressed group.

Usage and nuance, figyelhetetek is most commonly found in advisory, instructional, or conditional constructions where a possibility or suggestion is being conveyed to a group. It is not a command form; it conveys permission or possibility rather than instruction. The word is suitable in both spoken and written Hungarian, especially when addressing multiple listeners.

Example sentences:

- Ha figyelhetetek a figyelmeztetésekre, elkerülhetitek a hibákat. (If you may pay attention to the warnings, you can avoid the mistakes.)

- Figyelhetetek a részletekre, mielőtt aláírjátok a szerződést. (You could pay attention to the details before you sign the contract.)

Related forms include figyelni (the infinitive) and other mood forms of figyelni. figyelhetetek is a standard but relatively formal or cautious modal construction in Hungarian.
