Számíthatok

Számíthatok is a Hungarian verb that translates to "I can count on," "I can expect," or "I can rely on" in English. It is the first-person singular present tense form of the verb számíthat, which itself is derived from the noun szám (number) and the verb tesz (to put, to do, to make). The literal construction suggests "to be able to put to number" or "to be able to count."

The verb "számíthatok" is used in a variety of contexts. It can express certainty or a reasonable expectation about a future event or situation. For example, "Számíthatok rá, hogy holnap esni fog" translates to "I can expect that it will rain tomorrow." It also conveys a sense of trust or reliability. If someone says "Számíthatok rád," they mean "I can count on you" or "I can rely on you." This implies a belief in the other person's dependability and willingness to help or fulfill a promise. The verb can also be used in a more abstract sense, referring to the possibility of something happening. "Nem számíthatok könnyű feladatra" means "I cannot expect an easy task." The nuances of its meaning are often clarified by the context in which it is used and by accompanying prepositions or adverbs.
