Foglalkozunk

Foglalkozunk is the first-person plural present tense form of the Hungarian verb foglalkozik, meaning to be engaged with, to deal with, or to occupy oneself with something. It denotes ongoing activity carried out by a group and is typically used with a preposition in the phrase valamivel foglalkozunk (we deal with something, we are involved in something).

In usage, foglalkozunk is followed by a topic or matter, most often expressed with the instrumental case using the suffix -val/-vel or by the object of the engagement in appropriate constructions. For example: Mi a környezetvédelemmel foglalkozunk (We deal with environmental protection). The expression can also be used to describe general activities of a group, such as a team, a department, or an organization.

Grammatically, foglalkozik belongs to a regular conjugation pattern for -kozik verbs. The present indicative conjugation is: én foglalkozom, te foglalkozol, ő foglalkozik, mi foglalkozunk, ti foglalkoztok, ők foglalkoznak.

Etymology and related forms: the verb is connected to the root foglalkoz-, which also appears in related words such as foglalkozás (occupation, activity) and foglalkoztat (to employ, to keep busy). These terms share the underlying idea of occupation, engagement, or activity.
