jutalmazhat

Jutalmazhat is a Hungarian verb form that expresses possibility or permission to reward. It is derived from the verb jutalmazni (to reward) with the suffix -hat (-het in vowel harmony), which marks the potential mood in Hungarian. This form is used to indicate that someone is able to reward or that rewarding is permitted in a given context. Like other modal forms in Hungarian, jutalmazhat combines with a subject and, if needed, with objects and other sentence elements according to standard grammar rules.

Formation and usage

Jutalmazhat attaches to the verb stem jutalmaz-, producing a finite form that can function with different subjects. It can be inflected for person and number when required by the sentence, and it can appear in combination with other verb forms or proclitics to express tense or aspect in more complex structures. The base meaning remains: the subject has the ability or right to reward.

Examples

A tanár jutalmazhatja a diákokat, ha jól teljesítenek. The teacher may reward the students if they perform well.

Te jutalmazhatod a testvéredet, ha segített. You can reward your sibling if they helped.

Related forms

Beyond jutalmazhat, other modal-like forms derive from jutalmazni with -hat/-het and additional suffixes to reflect person, tense, or mood, such as jutalmazhatom (I can reward) or jutalmazhatod (you can reward). The core idea remains the same: expressing that rewarding is possible or permissible in a given situation.
