Usage notes

The past-tense forms of this verb are identical with the past-tense forms of megért (to understand), with the exception of the 3rd person singular indefinite, so one should always consider the possible homonyms. 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.
