Normally the argument (e.g. a form of -val/-vel for the first sense or the specification of the language in the second) will make the meaning clear. ==== Conjugation ==== === Further reading === megértet in Géza Bárczi, László Országh, et al., editors, A magyar nyelv értelmező szótára [The Explanatory Dictionary of the Hungarian Language] (ÉrtSz.), Budapest: Akadémiai Kiadó, 1959–1962.
