Kíséreltet

Kíséreltet is a Hungarian verbal form that conveys the act of causing or encouraging someone to carry out an attempt or experiment. The lemma is derived from the noun kísérlet, meaning “experiment” or “trial,” combined with the causative suffix -tet,-that modifies the base verb by indicating an external agency forcing or inviting the action. The resulting verb translates loosely into English as “to induce an experiment” or “to prompt a trial.”

The morphological construction follows typical Hungarian systematic patterns: the root kísér‑, indicating the idea of experiment, is attached to the causative suffix -tet, producing kíséreltet, while the infinitive ending -ni gives kíséreltetni. In contemporary usage the term is chiefly found in academic, scientific, or rhetorical contexts where a person or authority seeks to prompt investigative activity. For example, a government might kíséreltet a scientist to investigate a new phenomenon.

While not widely used in everyday conversation, kíséreltet appears in scientific journals and policy documents. In one 2015 article in the journal _Közgazdasági Szemle_ the phrase kíséreltetési azam egy új kutatási irányt jelent, illustrating its technical application. The word features in dictionaries of modern Hungarian, where it is classified as a non‑standard or specialized vocabulary item.
