hajlítsuk

Hajlítsuk is a conjugated form of the Hungarian verb hajlít, which means to bend or flex. In grammar, hajlítsuk functions as the inclusive hortative or present subjunctive form, used to express a suggestion or command to a group including the speaker. In English, it corresponds roughly to “let us bend” or “we should bend.”

Morphology and usage

Hajlítsuk is formed from the stem hajlít- plus the suffix -suk (adjusted for vowel harmony to -suk or -sük), yielding the first-person plural form. It appears in constructions that invite collective action, often with meg- to indicate complete bending of a target (for example, hajlítsuk meg a kart). The form is commonly used in instructional, collaborative, or imperative contexts, and its exact meaning depends on context and tone.

Usage notes

Hajlítsuk is one of several Hungarian mood forms used to express collective action. It contrasts with singular imperative forms (e.g., hajlítsd) and past or future tenses formed with other suffixes. In written and instructional Hungarian, hajlítsuk appears in guidelines, manuals, and language-learning materials to illustrate how to invite a group to perform a bending action.
