Halasztjátok

Halasztjátok is the second person plural present tense form of the Hungarian verb halasztani, meaning to postpone or delay. It can function as a straightforward present indicative form addressing multiple people, or as part of an imperative construction when giving a command to a group. The form uses the -játok suffix to mark the second person plural, with halaszt- as the stem.

In usage, halasztani refers to delaying actions or events rather than preventing them entirely. Halasztjátok is commonly found in contexts such as scheduling decisions, meeting or deadline adjustments, and planning. It often appears together with prefixes that create separable phrasal verbs, for example elhalasztani (to postpone by postponing) or meghalasztani (to cause someone else to postpone), where the imperative or indicative form can take el or meg as appropriate to the nuance of the request or statement.

Examples:

- Halasztjátok a határidőt holnapra. (You all postpone the deadline to tomorrow.)

- Kérlek, halasszátok el a találkozót a jövő hétre. (Please, you all postpone the meeting to next week.)

Related terms include halasztás (postponement), halasztó (postponer), and elhalasztás (the act of postponing). The word is commonly used in both spoken and written Hungarian and appears in formal and informal registers when discussing schedule changes and time management.
