Összeillesztjük a képeket.

Hungarian usually does not need a separate subject pronoun if the verb ending already shows who is doing the action.

In összeillesztjük, the ending -jük tells you the subject is we and that the verb is in the definite conjugation.

So:

• összeillesztjük = we join/fit/put together it/them
• no separate mi (we) is necessary

You could say Mi összeillesztjük a képeket, but mi is normally added only for emphasis, like We are the ones doing it.

The ending -jük is a 1st person plural definite verb ending.

Hungarian verbs have two main conjugation patterns:

• indefinite conjugation: used when there is no definite object
• definite conjugation: used when the verb has a definite object

Here the object is a képeket = the pictures, which is definite because of a (the).
That is why Hungarian uses the definite form:

• összeillesztünk = we put together / we fit together (indefinite)
• összeillesztjük a képeket = we put together the pictures (definite)

It has three main parts:

• össze- = together
• illeszt = fit, join, align, place so that parts match
• -jük = we do it, with a definite object

So the verb literally has the sense of:

• we fit together
• we join together
• we match up

This is a very common Hungarian pattern: a verb prefix plus a base verb plus a personal ending.

In a neutral, ordinary statement, Hungarian verb prefixes are often written directly together with the verb.

So:

• összeillesztjük = the normal neutral form

But the prefix can separate in other sentence types, especially with negation, focus, or certain other structures:

• Nem illesztjük össze a képeket. = We are not putting the pictures together.
• A képeket illesztjük össze. = It is the pictures that we are putting together.

So in your sentence, the attached form is the expected neutral one.

Because képeket is the accusative plural form, and the accusative marks the direct object.

Breakdown:

• kép = picture, image
• képek = pictures
• képeket = pictures (as the direct object)

So:

• képek = the pictures / pictures (subject form)
• képeket = the pictures / pictures (object form)

In this sentence, the pictures are what we are putting together, so Hungarian marks them with the accusative -t.

Hungarian has two forms of the definite article:

• a before a consonant sound
• az before a vowel sound

Since képeket begins with k, a consonant, the correct article is:

• a képeket

Compare:

• a ház = the house
• az alma = the apple

This choice depends on the sound at the beginning of the next word, not on gender or number.

Yes, kép is a broad word. Depending on context, it can mean:

• picture
• image
• photo
• illustration

So a képeket could mean:

• the pictures
• the images
• the photos

In a learning sentence like this, it often suggests physically or visually matching pictures, cards, or puzzle-like image pieces.

No, Hungarian word order is fairly flexible, but different orders change the emphasis or information structure.

The sentence as given is a neutral statement:

• Összeillesztjük a képeket. = We put the pictures together.

Other orders are possible:

• A képeket összeillesztjük. = As for the pictures, we’ll put them together / The pictures, we put them together.
• A képeket illesztjük össze. = It’s the pictures that we’re putting together.

So the basic meaning stays similar, but the focus shifts.

Yes, it can, depending on context.

Hungarian often uses the present tense for future meaning when the situation makes it clear.

So Összeillesztjük a képeket can mean:

• We are putting the pictures together.
• We put the pictures together.
• We will put the pictures together.

The exact time is usually understood from context or from time words such as:

• most = now
• holnap = tomorrow
• majd = later

For example:

• Holnap összeillesztjük a képeket. = Tomorrow we’ll put the pictures together.

A few useful pronunciation points:

• ö = similar to German ö or French eu in some words
• sz = English s in see
• j = English y in yes
• ü = similar to German ü or French u
• é = a long ay/eh-like vowel, but kept pure and steady

So in the sentence:

• Össze- starts with ö
• sz in össze sounds like plain English s
• -jük ends with ü, not an English oo

A common beginner mistake is reading sz like English z or s interchangeably, but in Hungarian:

• sz = English s
• s = English sh

The dictionary form is usually given as:

• összeilleszt = to fit together, join together, match up

You may also think of the simpler base:

• illeszt = to fit, insert, align, attach

Then the sentence uses a conjugated form of that verb:

• összeillesztjük = we fit/join them together

So if you want to look it up, search for összeilleszt or sometimes illeszt.
