férhet

Férhet is the third person singular potential form of the Hungarian verb fér, which means "to fit," "to have room," or figuratively "to be appropriate" or "to be able to endure." The suffix -het/-hat in Hungarian marks potentiality or possibility, so férhet typically translates as "may fit," "might fit," or "could fit."

As a verb form, férhet expresses that fitting is possible but not certain. It is used both for physical spatial arrangements (objects fitting into a space) and for figurative senses (an action or item being suitable). Like other Hungarian verbs, it combines with prefixes and particles to alter meaning (for example beférhet "may fit in," kiférhet "may fit out").

Examples:

- Ez a doboz talán a polcra férhet. (This box might fit on the shelf.)

- Rám férhet egy kis pihenés. (I could use a little rest. — literal: a rest may fit on me.)

Negation and interrogation follow regular Hungarian patterns (nem férhet — "may not fit"; férhet-e? — "might it fit?"). Agreement is not marked on the potential suffix beyond person and number; férhet is specific to third person singular. The form is common in everyday speech and writing when indicating possibility or polite uncertainty about capacity, suitability, or permissibility.
