Megtekintettük

Megtekintettük is the past tense, first-person plural form of the Hungarian verb megtekinteni, meaning to view or inspect. It denotes a completed action of viewing and is used when the subject is “we.”

Morphology and meaning. The form is built from the prefix meg-, the root tekint-, and the past tense ending -ettük, which marks the action as completed by a group including the speaker. Megtekintettük carries a neutral, formal nuance and is suitable for reports, descriptions, and official statements about what has been viewed.

Usage. Megtekintettük is commonly used when referring to viewing something in full or conducting a formal inspection. It appears in contexts such as exhibitions, documents, films, or online materials where a deliberate act of viewing is being reported. In everyday language, speakers often choose megnéztük, which conveys a more casual or general sense of having looked at something.

Examples. A few typical uses include: Megtekintettük a kiállítást. (We viewed the exhibition.) A felvételt megtekintettük a megbeszélés előtt. (We viewed the recording before the meeting.) A dokumentumot megtekintettük és aláírtuk. (We viewed the document and signed it.)
