eldöntitek

Eldöntitek is a Hungarian verb form meaning you (plural) decide. It is the second-person plural present tense of the verb eldönteni, which means to decide or to determine. The form combines el- as a prefix meaning “to settle” or “to determine,” the stem dönt, and the second-person plural ending -itek.

Formation and meaning: The prefix el- often adds a sense of completion or resolution to the action, so eldönteni conveys deciding something definitively. The base verb dönt has forms altered for person and number, and eldöntitek specifically targets the plural you. As a result, eldöntitek is used when addressing a group of people and indicating that they are currently deciding or have decided about something.

Usage: Eldöntitek appears in declarative and interrogative contexts where a group is asked to make a decision or is described as having made one. It is common in everyday conversation, organizational settings, and written Hungarian. The form is typically paired with a direct object or a choice, e.g., eldöntitek, melyik lehetőséget választjátok (you decide which option you choose).

Examples:

- Eldöntitek, melyik filmet nézzük este. (You (all) decide which movie we will watch tonight.)

- Ha kiolvasod a javaslatokat, eldöntitek, melyik a legjobb megoldás. (If you read the proposals, you will decide which is the best solution.)
