Megtekinthetik

Megtekinthetik is a Hungarian verb form that expresses possibility or ability for a plural subject to view something. It is derived from the verb megtekinteni (“to view”) with the prefix meg- signaling completion or emphasis, the suffix -het indicating the potential mood (could/may), and the ending -ik marking the third-person plural subject. The form translates roughly as “they can view” or “they may view.”

Morphology and usage can be summarized as follows: meg- adds a perfective sense to the verb, tekint is the root meaning to look or regard, -het creates the potential mood, and -ik marks the plural third-person form in contexts without an explicit subject or with a defined plural subject. This construction is typical in Hungarian for describing what a group is allowed or able to do, especially in more formal or instructional language.

Examples and contexts illustrate its use. For example, A felhasználók megtekinthetik a galériát means “Users may view the gallery” or “Users can view the gallery.” Another example is A dokumentum megtekinthető az online felületen, which uses a related form to express that the document is viewable in the online interface. In everyday language, speakers might opt for simpler or more common alternatives depending on nuance, such as megtekinthető or láthatják, depending on emphasis and formality.

Related forms include megtekinteni (the infinitive), megtekinthető (be viewable/capable of being viewed), and megtekintheti/megtekinthetik (singular/plural forms in the potential mood).
