befefejezzük

Befefejezzük is not a standard Hungarian verb form. In standard usage, the related verb is “befejezzük,” which means “we finish (something) completely” or “we bring to completion.” The form befefejezzük is generally regarded as a nonstandard variant, a misspelling, or a nonce form that can appear in informal writing or linguistic examples to illustrate prefixation and word boundaries.

Etymology and formation. The standard word belies a root built from the verb fejezni (to finish) with the prefix be-, which marks completion or realization. The present first-person plural form is “befejezzük.” The sequence shows how a prefixed verb can yield a single, tightly integrated lexical item in Hungarian. A form like befefejezzük would duplicate the initial segment of the stem and is not recognized as correct Hungarian in authoritative usage.

Orthography and usage notes. The correct orthography is befeljezzük? No—the correct spelling is befejezzük, with a single occurrence of the stem after the prefix. befefejezzük is generally treated as a spelling error or a deliberately exaggerated form for emphasis in informal contexts. In formal writing or standard language instruction, befejezzük should be used.

Examples. Correct: A projektet holnap befejezzük. More generally: Megpróbáljuk az összes feladatot befejezzük, mielőtt a határidő lejár. Nonstandard usage: befefejezzük (többnyire considered incorrect or humorous).
