Számítsanak

Számítsanak is a Hungarian verb. It is the imperative plural form of the verb számít, which means "to count," "to calculate," or "to expect." As an imperative, it is used to give a command or instruction to a group of people. The literal translation would be "count ye" or "calculate ye." However, in modern usage, it often functions more as "you all should count" or "you all should expect."

The verb "számít" itself has several related meanings. "To count" can refer to the act of enumeration, such as counting objects. "To calculate" implies a more complex process of computation or estimation. "To expect" suggests anticipating a future event or outcome, often based on past experience or current information. Therefore, "számítsanak" can carry these nuances depending on the context.

For example, in a mathematical context, "Számítsanak öt igent" would mean "Count five 'yes' votes." In a planning scenario, "Számítsanak késésre" could be interpreted as "Expect a delay." The specific meaning is derived from the object or situation it is applied to. The plural imperative form indicates that the instruction is directed at more than one person. It is a common verb form in Hungarian, used in both formal and informal settings when addressing a group.
