üzenetemet

Üzenetemet is the Hungarian inflected form that expresses “my message” as a definite direct object. It is not a separate word with its own meaning, but a grammatical form formed from the noun üzenet (message) combined with possessive and definiteness markers.

Forming üzenetemet involves two steps. First, the noun üzenet takes the first-person possessive suffix -em, yielding üzenetem, meaning “my message.” To mark the phrase as a definite direct object, Hungarian adds the suffix -et, producing üzenetemet. In actual usage, the form is typically preceded by the definite article az or a, depending on the phonological context; for vowels, az is used: az üzenetemet.

Usage and examples illustrate its function as a specific, speaker-owned message referenced as the object of the verb. For instance, Elolvastam az üzenetemet means “I have read my message.” Another example is Kérlek válaszolj az üzenetemet, meaning “Please reply to my message.” The form is common in written Hungarian when emphasizing ownership and definiteness of the message being discussed.

Relation to related terms: üzenet means “message”; the expression üzenetemet demonstrates how Hungarian compounds possessive suffixes (-em) combine with object-defining suffixes (-et) to produce a definite, first-person possessed noun phrase. It serves as a clear example of Hungarian morphology in everyday communication.
