nyertetek

Nyertetek is the second-person plural past indicative form of the Hungarian verb nyerni, which means "to win." It is used when addressing a group informally (with the pronoun ti) to state that they won something in the past. The verb form combines the past tense stem nyert- with the personal ending -etek to mark second-person plural.

Pronunciation in Hungarian can be approximated as [ɲɛrtɛtɛk]. Typical usage appears in sentences like "Ti nyertetek a meccsen" ("You (plural) won the match") or as a brief confirmation question "Nyertetek?" ("Did you (plural) win?"). Negation is formed in the usual way with nem: "Ti nem nyertetek" ("You did not win").

Nyertetek contrasts with other past-tense forms of nyerni such as én nyertem (I won), te nyertél (you singular won), and ők/önök nyertek (they/you formal won). The related past participle is nyert, used in compound constructions and adjectives. As with other Hungarian verbs, nyerni exhibits regular conjugation patterns in the past tense, and nyertetek follows these synthetic past-person endings rather than auxiliary-based past forms found in some other languages.
