letöltöttük

Letöltöttük is a Hungarian verb form meaning “we downloaded” or “we have downloaded.” It is the past tense form of the verb letölteni, which means “to download,” and it is used with the subject mi (we).

Formation: The form is derived from the stem letölt-, with the past tense suffix and the personal ending resulting in letöltöttük. It corresponds to a completed action performed by the speaker together with others.

Usage: Letöltöttük describes a download that has already taken place. It is commonly used when referring to a specific, identifiable item that was downloaded, such as a file, program, or update. Examples include: Tegnap letöltöttük a frissítést. A fájlt letöltöttük. These sentences translate to “Yesterday we downloaded the update” and “We downloaded the file,” respectively.

Related forms and notes: Related items include letöltés (download as a noun) and letölteni (to download). Other conjugations exist for different subjects and tenses, such as letöltöm (I download), letöltöd (you download), letöltjük (we download). The prefix le- in letölteni is a separable prefix that, in this context, helps form the meaning “to download” from the base tölteni, which in other senses can mean to fill or load.

Etymology: The verb letölteni combines the prefix le- with tölteni. While tölteni historically relates to filling or loading, in modern Hungarian letölteni has acquired the sense of transferring data from another source to the user’s device. The form letöltöttük is the natural past tense for “we downloaded” in everyday Hungarian usage.
