意思
Passing time with someone or doing something.
文化背景
Hungarians love to 'időt tölteni' in coffee houses (kávéház). This is a tradition from the 19th century where writers and thinkers would spend all day in a cafe with a single cup of coffee. For many Hungarians, 'időt tölteni' in the summer means going to Lake Balaton. It is the 'Hungarian Sea' and the ultimate location for spending vacation time. If you are a guest, your host will want you to 'időt tölteni' with them for as long as possible. Leaving early can sometimes be seen as a sign that you didn't enjoy the 'filling' of the time. Like everywhere, young Hungarians now 'töltenek' a lot of time on TikTok and Instagram, leading to the same generational debates about 'wasted time' (időpazarlás).
The 'With' Rule
Always pair 'időt tölteni' with the '-val/-vel' suffix when talking about people or hobbies.
