használhatja

Használhatja is a Hungarian verb form derived from használni, meaning to use. It expresses possibility or permission, equivalent to “can use” or “may use” in English. The form is finite and is typically used with the third-person singular subject, and in polite address with the pronoun Ön (you). In standard Hungarian, forms with -hat/-het mark potential mood (ability or possibility), and the ending -ja/-je can accompany the verb to indicate agreement with a definite object or to align with formal address.

In practice, használhatja appears in instructions, customer service, and formal communication when granting permission or indicating usability. It is commonly contrasted with more direct forms like használja (he/she uses) or használhatom (I may use), which reflect different subjects or levels of formality. The construction allows speakers to discuss whether a particular tool, program, or resource may be used by the listener.

Examples:

- Használhatja ezt a programot. = You may use this program. (formal address)

- Használhatja ezt az eszközt a feladat megoldására. = You can use this tool to complete the task.

- Ha szüksége van rá, használhatja. = If you need it, you may use it.

Etymology and related forms:

The base verb is használni; related nouns include a használat (use, usage) and használható (usable). The form használhatja, with the -ja/-je suffix, is part of the same verb system that marks person, mood, and definiteness in Hungarian verbs.
