Kijavíttatjuk a hibát.

More literally, it means We have the error corrected or We get the error corrected.

A very close breakdown is:

• ki- = a verbal prefix
• javít = correct / fix
• -tat- = causative, meaning make someone do or have something done
• -juk = we with a definite object

So the idea is not simply we correct the error, but we arrange for the error to be corrected.

Because of the causative suffix -tat-.

Compare:

• Kijavítjuk a hibát. = We correct the error.
• Kijavíttatjuk a hibát. = We have the error corrected.

So -tat- adds the meaning of causing or arranging for someone else to do the action. In English, this often corresponds to have something done.

It can be analyzed as:

• ki-
• javít
• -tat-
• -juk

So:

• javít = correct
• javíttat = have someone correct
• kijavíttat = have someone correct completely / fix up
• kijavíttatjuk = we have it corrected

This kind of long verb form is very normal in Hungarian, where several pieces of meaning are packed into one word.

Because the stem already ends in t and the causative suffix also begins with t.

So:

• javít
  • tat → javíttat

That produces the double tt in spelling. Then -juk is added after that.

So the word is not random or irregular-looking by accident; it is built from regular parts that happen to create a cluster of t sounds.

In this sentence, ki- helps form the usual verb meaning correct fully / fix properly / correct out.

With many Hungarian verbs, prefixes add a sense of:

• completion
• result
• direction
• aspect

Here, ki- does not need to be translated literally as out in English. It is part of the normal verb kijavít, which means correct or fix in a completed sense.

So it is better to learn kijavít as a whole verb meaning correct properly, rather than trying to translate ki word-for-word every time.

It is built into the verb ending -juk.

Hungarian usually does not need a separate subject pronoun, because the verb ending already shows the subject.

So:

• kijavíttatjuk already means we have it corrected

If you want to emphasize we, you can add mi:

• Mi kijavíttatjuk a hibát. = We are the ones who will have the error corrected.

But in an ordinary sentence, the pronoun is usually omitted.

Because the verb is:

• first person plural = we
• in the definite conjugation

Hungarian verbs often have two sets of endings:

• indefinite conjugation
• definite conjugation

The definite conjugation is used when the direct object is definite, and here the object is a hibát, meaning the error.

So -juk tells you both:

• the subject is we
• the object is definite

That is why the ending is not just a simple we ending in the English sense.

Because a hibát is the direct object of the verb, so it takes the accusative ending -t.

Compare:

• a hiba = the error as a basic dictionary form
• a hibát = the error as the thing being acted on

Also, the final a becomes long before the suffix:

• hiba
  • -t → hibát

So this is a normal Hungarian pattern.

Formally, the verb is in the present tense.

However, Hungarian very often uses present-tense forms to talk about the future when the context makes that clear.

So Kijavíttatjuk a hibát can mean:

• We are having the error corrected
• We will have the error corrected

The exact English translation depends on context, not just on the verb form by itself.

Yes, the word order can change.

The version Kijavíttatjuk a hibát is a natural neutral sentence, with no special emphasis.

Hungarian word order is strongly connected to topic and focus, not just grammar. So other orders are possible, depending on what you want to emphasize.

For example:

• A hibát kijavíttatjuk. = As for the error, we’ll have it corrected.
• Nem javíttatjuk ki a hibát. = We are not having the error corrected.

Notice that the prefix ki- can separate from the verb in some sentence types, especially with negation or focus.

So the given sentence is one normal form, but not the only possible order.
