Hajlítjuk

Hajlítjuk is a Hungarian verb form meaning we bend or we are bending. It is the present tense, first-person plural form of the verb hajlítani, which denotes bending, flexing, or deforming something. The form is used when the subject is we and the action concerns bending a thing.

The base root is hajlít-, and the suffix -juk marks the 1st person plural present indicative. Other related forms include hajlítom (I bend), hajlítod (you bend), hajlítja (he/she bends), hajlítjuk (we bend), hajlítjátok (you all bend), and hajlítják (they bend). The verb can take a direct object and is common in both literal, physical bending and metaphorical uses.

Usage and nuance: In technical or workshop language, hajlítjuk describes bending materials such as metal, plastic pipes, or rods. Figuratively, it can be used to express bending rules or adapting something to fit conditions, as in hajlítjuk a szabályokat. The phrase is versatile across registers, from engineering notes to everyday speech.

Examples:

- Hajlítjuk a vasat a megadott ív felé. (We bend the iron toward the specified curve.)

- A projekt során hajlítjuk a tervet, hogy alkalmazkodjunk a körülményekhez. (During the project, we bend the plan to adapt to the conditions.)

In summary, hajlítjuk is the standard present-tense, first-person plural form used to denote that “we bend,” applicable in literal and metaphorical contexts.
