Hungarian
[edit]Etymology

Pronunciation
[edit]Conjunction
[edit]meg
- and
- plus (sum of the previous one and the following one)
- Három meg egy egyenlő néggyel. ― Three plus one equals four.
Usage notes
[edit]This term may also be part of the split form of a verb prefixed with meg- (usually expressing completion), occurring when the main verb does not follow the prefix directly. It can be interpreted only with the related verb form, irrespective of its position in the sentence, e.g. meg tudták volna nézni (“they could have seen it”, from megnéz). For verbs with this prefix, see meg-; for an overview, Appendix:Hungarian verbal prefixes.
- Ezt nem eszem meg! ― I will not eat this [up]; i.e., I will not complete eating it.
