megválasztható

Megválasztható is a Hungarian adjective meaning "eligible to be elected" or "electable." It describes a person or candidate who may be chosen for a public office in an election, according to applicable laws and norms.

The word is formed from the verb választ (to elect/choose) with the prefix meg- and the suffix -ható (or -hető, depending on harmony), a standard Hungarian construction used to express possibility or capability. The literal sense is "able to be elected," and it is commonly used to discuss political candidacy and electoral rules.

In usage, megválasztható is typically applied to a person or candidate to indicate that they meet the legal or normative criteria to stand for a given office. For example: "A jelölt megválasztható a képviselői posztra." The exact eligibility criteria depend on the office and the relevant constitutional or electoral law; the term signals compliance with those criteria rather than a guaranteed outcome of election, which depends on voter support.

Differences and synonyms: választható is closely related and sometimes used interchangeably, though megválasztható can carry a slightly stronger emphasis on formal eligibility. The expression appears in legal provisions, electoral guidelines, and political discourse.
