megérthették
Megérthették is a Hungarian verb form. It is the conditional mood, past tense, third-person plural form of the verb "megért" (to understand). This means it translates to "they could have understood" or "they might have understood" in English. The conditional mood in Hungarian expresses hypothetical or uncertain situations, often relating to past events that did not necessarily happen or were not definitively known. The past tense aspect indicates that this possibility or potential for understanding occurred in the past. The third-person plural ending signifies that the subject of the verb is "they". Therefore, "megérthették" describes a situation where a group of people had the potential to grasp or comprehend something, but it doesn't explicitly state whether they actually did. It suggests a missed opportunity or an alternative past reality where understanding was possible.
