Válaszunk

Válaszunk is the Hungarian term meaning “our answer.” It is the first-person plural possessive form of the noun válasz (answer) and is used to indicate that a response belongs to the speaker or to a group including the speaker. The suffix -unk marks possession by the speaker and can accompany plural or collective references.

Morphology and usage patterns: válaszunk is formed by adding the possessive suffix -unk to válasz. In sentences, the form can appear as a simple nominal phrase or take case endings for different grammatical roles, for example a válaszunk (our answer) in the nominative, or válaszunkat for the definite direct object, as in Megfogalmaztuk a válaszunkat a kérdésre. The word is typically used in contexts where a group presents a collective stance or decision, such as in debates, surveys, press statements, or organizational communications.

Meaning and nuance: válaszunk emphasizes a collective position rather than an individual one. It can refer to a direct answer in a dialogue, to an official position of a group, or to an articulated response to a question or problem. The term is common in formal and semi-formal Hungarian discourse and often appears in written statements to signal unity of purpose.

Examples:

- A válaszunk az volt, hogy igen.

- Elkészítettük a válaszunkat a kérdésre.

- A válaszunkat közöltük a sajtóval.
