viselje

Viselje is a Hungarian verb form derived from visel, meaning “to wear” or “to carry.” It functions primarily as a formal imperative addressed to a single person (Ön) and as the third-person singular present subjunctive form used in dependent clauses with hogy (that).

In usage, viselje appears most often in polite instructions, official texts, and formal discourse. As a formal imperative, it conveys a command or instruction in a respectful tone: for example, Viselje ezt a kabátot. (Wear this coat.) In this sense, it corresponds to the polite form of “wear” directed at one person. In clauses introduced by hogy, viselje serves the present subjunctive: A kívánság az, hogy viselje a védőruhát. (The wish that he/she wear the protective clothing.)

Distinguishing forms can be challenging for learners, because visel has several related forms for different moods and persons. Informal singular commands typically use a different voice or form, while the 3rd-person polite imperative (viselje) is reserved for formal address. The form also appears in legal, medical, or customer-service language where precise, respectful instruction is required.

Semantics and nuance: viselje does not denote a simple present fact, but a directive or hypothetical/desired action in formal or carefully stated contexts. In everyday speech, speakers are more likely to use less formal constructions.

Related terms: visel (to wear), viselés (wearing). See also Hungarian verb conjugation resources for mood, voice, and formal-address patterns.

Note: The exact usage of viselje can vary by register and regional practice, but it is widely recognized as the polite imperative form and as part of the hedging subjunctive construction with hogy.
