megfizetend

Megfizetend is a Hungarian adjective meaning that something is owed and must be paid; in other words, payable or due. It is commonly used in financial and legal contexts to describe sums, obligations, or claims that are eligible for payment.

The standard form in contemporary Hungarian is megfizetendő. The related verb is fizetni (to pay). The prefix meg- combined with the participial suffix -endő yields megfizetendő, indicating an obligation to pay. The form megfizetend is a much rarer variant and is generally seen as archaic, regional, or the result of truncation in non-standard texts. In everyday language, other synonyms such as fizetendő are often used, with similar meaning but sometimes a slightly broader scope.

Usage typically appears before a noun to specify a liability or amount due, for example megfizetendő összeg or megfizetendő kötelezettség. It signals that a payment is required by a debtor or obligated party, often by a deadline. In contract and accounting language, it helps distinguish amounts that are due from amounts that are already paid or not yet due.
