összeírni

Összeírni is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to list," "to write down," or "to register" in English. It generally refers to the act of creating a compilation of items, information, or individuals by writing them down in a systematic manner. The specific nuance can vary depending on the context in which it is used.

For example, one might use összeírni when taking inventory of goods in a warehouse, meaning to list all the items present. In a more administrative context, it can mean to register people, such as when a government official needs to compile a list of residents in a particular area for census purposes. The verb implies a structured and organized process of recording.

It can also be used in more informal settings, such as when someone is asked to write down a grocery list or to list the tasks they need to complete for the day. The core idea remains the same: creating a written record or compilation. The plural form of the verb is "összeírniuk," meaning "to write them down" (referring to multiple people).
