megkeressék

Megkeressük is a Hungarian verb form derived from megkeresni. It is the first-person plural (mi) form in the present tense of the prefixed verb megkeresni. The prefix meg- adds a sense of completion or definiteness, and keres means to search or to look for. With the prefix, megkeresni covers both meanings of contacting someone and searching for something, depending on the object of the sentence.

Meaning and usage

- Contacting someone: megkeresni valakit means to reach out to or contact someone. Megkeressük a partnert or Megkeressük Önt a részletek egyeztetéséért are typical business or formal uses where the speaker and others intend to contact a person or organization.

- Searching for something: megkeresni valamit means to locate or look for something. Megkeressük a kulcsot, a dokumentumot vagy információt is a helyzetétől függően.

- Ambiguity and context: the exact sense is determined by the direct object. In spoken Hungarian, context usually makes clear whether the goal is contacting someone or finding an object.
