Mértéküket is a Hungarian word that translates to "their measure," "their proportion," or "their extent" in English. It is a possessive form of the noun "mérték," which means "measure," "standard," "proportion," or "limit." The suffix "-ük" indicates possession by a third-person plural subject, meaning "their."
