Tárgyaljuk

Tárgyaljuk is a finite verb form of the Hungarian verb tárgyalni, meaning to negotiate or discuss a matter. It denotes a present-tense action carried out by the speaker and others, typically translated as “we negotiate” or “we discuss.” The infinitive form is tárgyalni, and the related noun tárgyalás refers to a negotiation or a discussion. The noun tárgy means subject, matter, or topic, which underpins the sense of talking about a subject in a negotiation or meeting.

In use, tárgyaljuk appears in sentences where a group is actively engaging in negotiation or deliberation. It is common in business, diplomacy, politics, and organizational settings. The form can take a direct object or be followed by a specification of what is being discussed, for example: tárgyaljuk a feltételeket or tárgyaljuk a szerződést. As with other Hungarian finite forms, the exact suffix reflects person and number, and the form is understood from context to involve the subject “we.”

Related terms include tárgyalás (negotiation, discussion) and tárgyaló (negotiator or conference area, depending on context). Distinct moods or forms, such as the imperative let us negotiate (tárgyaljuk, or in some contexts tárgyaljunk), appear in more directive uses. Overall, tárgyaljuk is a common, neutral present-tense form used to describe collaborative bargaining or deliberation by a group.
