felvethetik

Felvethetik is a Hungarian verb form derived from the infinitive felvetni, meaning to raise, bring up, or pose a question or issue. The form consists of the prefix fel- attached to the verb vetni (root vet) and the suffix -hetik, which marks possibility in the third-person plural. In effect, felvethetik means “they may raise” or “they could raise,” typically used with an object such as a question, issue, or proposal.

Morphology and semantics. The prefix fel- conveys upward or outward movement, and with vetni it forms a sense of raising or bringing up something for discussion. The suffix -hetik expresses possibility or potential, so felvethetik signals that a group of subjects could raise or present something in a given context. The form is finite and prefers a plural subject; singular equivalents are felvetheti (3rd person singular) or felvethetné (conditional-like forms) depending on the exact mood and tense.

Usage. Felvethetik is common in formal or analytical language, such as political, academic, or editorial discourse, where speakers discuss whether a group may raise a question, item, or idea in a debate or decision-making process. It is used with a direct object in the accusative case: felvethetik a kérdést, felvethetik az ötletet, felvethetik a problémát.

Examples.

- A felsőbb testületek felvethetik a kérdést a tanácskozáson.

- A kutatók felvethetik új hipotézist az eredmények alapján.

Notes. Felvethetik is a separable-prefix verb form, and in Hungarian sentence structure the prefix fel- can appear before the verb or split off in certain tenses. The term is primarily a verbal inflection, not a lexical noun or stand-alone concept.
