Korlátoztunk

Korlátoztunk is the Hungarian verb form meaning “we restricted” or “we limited.” It is the first-person plural past tense (időmúlt) of the verb korlátozni, which means “to limit” or “to restrict.” The form is used when the subject performing the action is the speaker plus others.

Formation and grammar: The stem korlátoz- takes the past tense ending -tunk to produce korlátoztunk, indicating a completed action by the subject “we.” In sentences it is commonly followed by a direct object or a prepositional phrase specifying what was restricted, such as access, opportunities, or resources. The verb is used in both narrative and reportive contexts.

Usage: Korlátoztunk is typically employed in statements about decisions or measures taken by a group, organization, or collective that imposed limits. It can describe temporary constraints, policy changes, or regulatory actions, and it is suitable for describing past behavior in a factual, non-narrative way.

Examples:

- Korlátoztunk a belépést a rendezvényre a biztonsági okok miatt.

- Korlátoztunk bizonyos hozzáféréseket a rendszerhez.
