minimalizálhatunk

Minimalizálhatunk is a Hungarian verb form that expresses the possibility or ability to minimize an action, equivalent to "we can minimize" in English. It is formed from the verb minimalizálni (to minimize) with the potential suffix -hat/-het and the first-person plural ending -unk, producing a finite present form that agrees with the subject mi (we).

The form is used in contexts where optimization or reduction is being discussed, such as costs, time, complexity, or risk, typically in technical, business, or planning language. It signals that a minimization is feasible under the given conditions, rather than stating a definite outcome.

Examples:

A projekt során minimalizálhatunk néhány felesleges lépést.

Ha áttekintjük a folyamatokat, minimalizálhatunk költségeket anélkül, hogy a minőség romlana.

Etymology and grammar notes: minimalizálhatunk is built from the root minimalizál-, plus the modal suffix -hat and the 1st-person plural ending -unk. It belongs to the Hungarian potential mood and reflects a non-finite aspect combined with a finite subject form, suitable for discussing plans or options in various domains.
