felhasználhatom

The Hungarian word "felhasználhatom" is a verb form that translates to "I can use" or "may I use" in English. It is composed of the base verb "használ" (to use), the causative suffix "-hat/-het" indicating possibility or ability, and the first-person singular personal ending "-om" signifying that the subject is "I".

The suffix "-hat/-het" is a key component in forming modal verbs in Hungarian, expressing the potential or permission to perform an action. Therefore, "felhasználhatom" directly conveys the speaker's ability or the possibility for them to utilize something. The prefix "fel-" can add a sense of completion or application, but in this context, it primarily functions as part of the verbal compound.

This form is commonly used in everyday conversation and writing when inquiring about permission to use an object or when stating one's ability to use something. For instance, one might ask "Felhasználhatom a telefonodat?" which means "May I use your phone?". Alternatively, a speaker might say "Ezt a szerszámot már én is felhasználhatom," translating to "I can use this tool too." The grammatical structure makes it a versatile expression for conveying the idea of usability from the speaker's perspective.
