eltereljük

eltereljük is a Hungarian verb. It is the first-person plural conditional form of the verb elkerül, meaning "to avoid," "to escape," or "to prevent." The conditional mood in Hungarian expresses hypothetical or uncertain actions, often translated as "would" or "could" in English. Therefore, eltereljük literally translates to "we would avoid," "we would escape," or "we would prevent."

This verb form is used in sentences where a group of people (the speaker and at least one other person) are contemplating or describing a situation where avoidance, escape, or prevention might occur under certain conditions. For example, one might say, "Ha figyelmesebbek lennénk, elkerülnénk a balesetet," which translates to "If we were more careful, we would avoid the accident." In this context, "elkerülnénk" is the first-person plural conditional form of "elkerül." The specific nuance of "eltereljük" (with the 't' instead of 'k') is a less common variation, often considered dialectal or archaic, with a similar meaning of avoidance or deviation. It is important to note that the standard and most widely used form is "elkerülnénk."
