Közbeszólhassunk is a Hungarian phrase that translates to "Can we interject?" or "May we chime in?" in English. It is a polite and common way to ask for permission to add one's thoughts or opinions to an ongoing conversation or discussion. The phrase is often used in group settings, meetings, or casual conversations where individuals want to contribute without interrupting the flow of dialogue.

The phrase is composed of several parts. "Köz-" is a prefix that implies something being in the middle or between. "Beszólhassunk" is derived from the verb "beszól," which means to speak into or interject. The suffix "-hassunk" is the first-person plural conditional form, indicating a request or a possibility. Therefore, the literal meaning conveys the idea of "may we speak into the midst of it."
