tettünk

Tettünk is a Hungarian verb form. It is the first-person plural past tense of the verb tenni, which means to do or to make. In English, tettünk corresponds to “we did” or “we have done,” depending on the context and aspect of the sentence.

Morphology and usage: Tettünk is formed from the past tense stem tett- plus the 1st-person plural suffix -ünk. It is a finite verb form and is used in declarative statements and narratives to indicate a completed action performed by the speaker together with others. The form can take objects or complements just like other finite verbs of tenni, and word order in Hungarian remains flexible, though a natural construction is often Egy lépést tettünk (We took a step) or Tettünk valamit az ügy érdekében (We did something for the matter).

Context and meaning: Like other past tense forms of tenni, tettünk signals that the action occurred in the past and is presented as a completed event. The exact nuance—whether it aligns more closely with a simple past or a present perfect sense—depends on the broader context and accompanying time expressions.

Related forms: Teni-related forms include tettem (I did), tetted (you did), tette (he/she did), and tettük (we did in some other contexts). Tettünk is specifically the 1st-person plural past tense form.
