Készülünk

Készülünk is a Hungarian verb form meaning we are preparing or we are getting ready. It is the first-person plural present tense of the verb készülni, which denotes the action of preparing oneself for something. The phrase is commonly used in everyday speech to talk about plans, events, or changes that people are about to undertake.

Etymologically, készülni is built from the root kész, meaning ready, with the verbal suffixes that form the infinitive and then the present-tense ending. Készülünk thus literally translates to “we are preparing (ourselves)” and can be used with accompanying phrases such as a target event or purpose, often introduced with a preposition or a case form in Hungarian (for example, készülünk a vizsgára, we are preparing for the exam).

In usage, Készülünk appears in ordinary conversation, writing, and media to express ongoing preparation for forthcoming activities, such as travel, performances, examinations, or changes in plans. It can function both descriptively and narratively, signaling anticipation and readiness within a given timeline.

The capitalized form, Készülünk, may also appear as a title or headline in Hungarian texts, where it can evoke the sense of preparation as a central theme. In such uses, the phrase operates as a thematic cue rather than a grammatical sentence, reflecting the broader cultural resonance of getting ready for something ahead.
