elhelyezték

Elhelyeztük is the first-person plural past tense form of the Hungarian verb elhelyezni, meaning to place or locate something in a particular position or setting. It translates to “we placed” or “we have placed” in English, depending on context. The form signals a completed action performed by the speaker and at least one other person.

Used in neutral, descriptive prose, elhelyeztük typically appears in reports, inventories, logistics, cataloging, or archival contexts. It is usually accompanied by a direct object (the thing placed) and a locational phrase (where it was placed). The context clarifies whether the action is presented as completed in the past or as part of a recent past sequence.

In Hungarian, elhelyezni is a regular verb; elhelyeztük is formed by adding the past tense and definite-object suffix to the verb stem. The same verb has related forms such as elhelyeztette (he/she had placed it), elhelyeztük (we placed it), elhelyezem (I place), etc.

Examples:

- Elhelyeztük a termékeket a raktárban. (We placed the products in the warehouse.)

- Elhelyeztük a kiállított tárgyakat a vitrinekben. (We placed the displayed items in the display cases.)

Etymology note: elhelyezni derives from el- (a prefix often giving a sense of completion or relocation) and helyez (root related to hely, place), with standard Hungarian verb conjugation patterns producing elhelyeztük in the first-person plural past tense.
