teszünk

Teszünk is a Hungarian verb form. It represents the first-person plural present tense of the verb tenni, meaning to do or to put. In usage, teszünk denotes actions performed by the speaker together with at least one other person, and it is commonly translated as we do or we put.

Conjugation and variation: the present-tense forms of tenni include several variants, and teszünk is one of them used in everyday speech. In standard writing and formal contexts, speakers may also use related forms such as tesszük, depending on regional or stylistic preferences. The existence of variant spellings reflects Hungarian phonological and historical developments, where the root can shift between tesz- and tegy- in different tenses and moods. Context and register often determine which form is preferred.

Usage notes: teszünk appears in questions such as Mit teszünk most? (What do we do now?) and in declarative sentences describing shared actions, for example Mi teszünk a közösségért? (What do we do for the community?). Because tenni is highly productive in Hungarian, teszünk can combine with a wide range of objects and adverbs to express concrete or abstract actions. The form is relatively common in everyday speech and is taught as part of basic Hungarian verb conjugation for learners studying present-tense morphology.
