"Én látok."

Translation: I can see.

[btiirwin]

Does anyone know if Hungarians use "I see" in the sense of "now I understand", as we do in English?

[Findil]

No, we don't. We say "értem" (lit.: "I understand it").

[kohlbeci]

(-/már/most már) világos ~ it is clear (now)

[Diomm]

Is it a mistake that my answer "I'm seeing." was not accepted? Thanks in advance!

[mizinamo]

No, I think it was correctly rejected.

"see" is not usually used in the continuous forms in English when it refers to visual perception -- along with other so-called stative verbs such as "love, hear, think, believe, know".

[nessa282011]

While you are right, there are some examples in english that use present continuous of the verb see:
"I'm (only) seeing this now. " or "Are you seeing this? " (the latter is maybe more informal). Then would it still be "látok" ? (my guess is yes, but idk haha)

[w0046765522853]

Can anyone please explain the difference between "én látok " and " én látom " with some examples, thanks in advance,

[DonqpeR]

Látok = I (can) see, as I am not blind, or it is not dark where I am.

Látok egy madarat. = I see a bird.

but

Látom a madarat = I see the bird.

[PekoBodin]

Is "Én látom" wrong here?

[mizinamo]

That would be definite conjugation, i.e. "I (can) see it."

[PekoBodin]

Thank you.

Is "I see" acceptable? It's rejecting that answer.

[GborHegeds1]

it should and it is now

[miran578393]

Is "I see" meant in a sense "I am not blind."?

[GborHegeds1]

yes, or when someone asks why don't you switch on the lights, the inclusion of the personal pronoun puts an emphasis on the speaker (as it is usually omitted)

[Zam243703]

What about "I am looking". Is that the correct translation?

[jzsuzsi]

No. see - lát, look - néz. So "I am looking". - (Én) nézek.

[EmperorBut]

Is "Én" necessary or can you just say "Látok"?

[jzsuzsi]

not necessary.

Látok.
