sebességedet

Sebességedet is a Hungarian noun form that translates to "your speed" in English. It is not a separate concept with a universal definition; rather, it is a grammatical inflection formed from the noun sebesség (speed) together with the second-person possessive suffix -ed and the definite direct object suffix -et.

Morphology and usage

The base word is sebesség. To express ownership by the listener, the suffix -ed is attached to create sebességed (your speed). When the speaker treats the phrase as a definite direct object, the suffix -et is added, yielding sebességedet. This construction is common in sentences where the listener’s speed is the object of an action or observation, such as in traffic or measurement contexts.

Examples

In traffic or law contexts, you might encounter sentences like: A rendőrség figyeli a sebességedet. (The police are monitoring your speed.) A radar kijelzője mutatja sebességedet. (The radar display shows your speed.) In instructional or descriptive text, phrases like "mérd meg a sebességedet" can appear, meaning "measure your speed," with sebességedet functioning as the object.

Context and scope

Sebességedet is primarily a grammatical form rather than a standalone technical term. Its relevance lies in Hungarian syntax and morphology, illustrating how possessive and definite object suffixes interact. It can appear in any domain where speed is discussed and the listener’s speed is being referenced as a definite object.
