Törölhetnek

Törölhetnek is a Hungarian verb form meaning “they can delete” or “they may delete.” It is the finite form derived from the verb törölni, which means “to delete,” combined with the potential mood suffix -het and the third-person plural present ending -nek. The form expresses possibility or permission for deletion by a plural subject.

Formation and grammar: The base töröl- takes the potential suffix -het to become törölhet, and adding the present 3rd-person plural ending -nek yields törölhetnek. This construction is used when describing actions that may be performed by multiple actors, such as users or administrators, rather than a completed action. It is not a passive form; rather, it denotes that deletion is possible for the subject.

Usage: Törölhetnek appears in contexts describing permissions, capabilities, or policies related to data management, file handling, and record keeping. It commonly occurs in documentation, system guidelines, or user agreements where the ability to delete items is being specified for groups rather than individuals. For example: “Az adminisztrátorok törölhetnek régi bejegyzéseket.” (Administrators may delete old entries.) “A rendszerben a jogosultsággal rendelkező felhasználók törölhetnek fájlokat.” (Users with the proper permissions can delete files.)

Related forms: Related morphological forms include törölhetnek (they can delete) and törölhetne (he/she/it could delete) in singular; these reflect different moods or person/number combinations in Hungarian verb conjugation.
