I don’t know how special a Hungarianism it is, but very interesting indeed. This conjugation is a bit archaic and rural, you’ll barely meet it in texts from modern sources, but natives will understand it. Let’s start from the little bits, three verbs of the most common ones, all irregular of course. I show their roots as well.
////
//eszik, e-// – s/he eats
//iszik, i-// – s/he drinks
//megy, me-// – s/he goes
////
Note that these all third person singular forms, being that one the dictionary form.
Now let’s take the root and add the optative suffix //-hat, -het// which means “can, may, be able to, allowed to”. //Iszik// takes back vowel suffixes.
////
//ehet// – s/he can eat
//ihat// – s/he can drink
//mehet// – s/he can go
////
Now let’s add the conditional suffix //-na, -ne// which means “would.”
////
//ehetne// – s/he would be able to eat
//ihatna// – s/he would be able to drink
//mehetne// – s/he would be able to go
////
Let’s look around the personal suffixes for these forms.
////
//ehetnék// – I would be able to eat
//ehetnél// – you would be able to eat
//ehetne// – s/he would be able to eat
//ehetnénk// – we would be able to eat
//ehetnétek// – y’all would be able to eat
//ehetnének// – they would be able to eat
////
//ihatnék// – I would be able to drink((the rules of vowel harmony would require //ihatnák// here, but this is considered uneducated speech, use irregular //ihatnék// instead))
//ihatnál// – you would be able to drink
//ihatna// – s/he would be able to drink
//ihatnánk// – we would be able to drink
//ihatnátok// – y’all would be able to drink
//ihatnának// – they would be able to drink
////
//mehetnék// – I would be able to go
//mehetnél// – you would be able to go
//mehetne// – s/he would be able to go
//mehetnénk// – we would be able to go
//mehetnétek// – y’all would be able to go
//mehetnének// – they would be able to go
////
Now, let’s see the first person singular forms: //ehetnék, ihatnék, mehetnék.// You can use them as phrasal words to urge someone you are depending on, and being slow they’ll delaying you. //Ehetnék!// “I would eat, it’s time to!” That’s not very polite, though. It’s nicer to use the third person plural and ask it as a question: //Ehetnénk?// “Could we eat, finally?”
But let’s stay with the first person singular. You can turn it into a noun. Just use it so, and use it in a possessive structure.
////
//ehetnékem van// – I have an Iwouldbeabletoeat
//ihatnékom van// – I have an Iwouldbeabletodrink
//mehetnékem van// – I have an Iwouldbeabletogo
////
This means, practically, “I’d like to eat, drink, go, I feel the urge to, it’s time for it”, but doesn’t contain the element of urging someone, you can use it when you’re preparing the food or drink or getting on the way yourself.
