Várlak

Várlak is a Hungarian word that translates to "I am waiting for you" or "I will wait for you" in English. It is a common expression used in everyday conversation to indicate anticipation or a promise to remain present until someone arrives or a situation resolves. The word is a conjugation of the verb "vár," meaning "to wait." Specifically, "várlak" is the first-person singular future tense form with the direct object pronoun "-lak" attached, meaning "you" (singular, informal).

The usage of "várlak" is versatile. It can be used in a literal sense, such as when someone is at a train station and tells another person they are waiting for them. For instance, "Már várlak a bejáratnál" translates to "I am already waiting for you at the entrance." It can also be used metaphorically, expressing patience or a willingness to endure a period of waiting. In a more emotional context, it can convey a sense of longing or hopeful expectation. The informal nature of the "-lak" suffix suggests a close relationship between the speaker and the person being addressed. A more formal or plural address would use different pronoun endings. The simplicity and directness of "várlak" make it a frequently used phrase in Hungarian communication.
