ismételhet

Ismételhet is a form in Hungarian grammar that relates to the verb ismétel, meaning “to repeat.” The suffixes -het or -hető attach to a verb stem to express possibility or capability, roughly translating to “can be repeated” or “repeatable.” The form ismételhet is therefore connected to the expression of potential rather than a standalone, commonly used verb in everyday speech. In linguistic descriptions it may appear when discussing how the word ismétel can combine with the potential suffix, while the related noun forms—such as ismétlés (repetition) and ismételhetőség (repeatability)—are more frequently used in ordinary and technical language.

Usage and nuances: in general Hungarian, the adjective ismételhető (repeatable) is the standard way to describe something that can be repeated. ismételhet itself tends to occur mainly in grammatical analysis or as a component of longer words; it is not a common everyday utterance. Examples of the broader concept include phrases like a folyamat ismételhető, meaning the process can be repeated, or a művelet ismétlődik azonos feltételek között, illustrating repetition under the same conditions.

Scientific and technical context: in science and quality control, the term ismételhetőség (repeatability) is used to describe the ability to obtain the same results when a measurement or experiment is repeated under the same conditions. This concept is related to, but distinct from, reproducibility (reprodukálhatóság), which concerns achieving consistent results across different settings or operators.
