Review Summary
- Infinitive stem + possessive suffix + kell
常见错误
While 'Nekem kell menni' is understood, using the personal suffix 'mennem' is much more natural and idiomatic in Hungarian.
The word 'kell' is an impersonal verb and never changes form to match the subject pluralization.
When using the third person, ensure you use the correct vowel harmony and suffix (-a/-e or -ja/-je) for the infinitive stem.
