Can you translate to English this weird Hungarian word? megszentsĆ©gtelenĆthetetlensĆ©geskedĆ©seitekĆ©rt

Yes š ā it is famously weird.
megszentsĆ©gtelenĆthetetlensĆ©geskedĆ©seitekĆ©rt
There is no natural single-word equivalent in English. The meaning is:
- āfor your (plural) repeated behavior of acting as if you were incapable of being desecrated / profaned.ā
A slightly smoother English rendering would be:
- ābecause of your repeated pretensions of being impossible to desecrate.ā
Or, more idiomatically:
- āfor your continued behavior of acting as though you were beyond desecration.ā
Whatās going on structurally (briefly): the base verb is szentsĆ©gtelenĆt (āto desecrateā), which is then negated, made potential, abstracted, turned into a habitual behavior, pluralized, marked as second-person plural, and finally put into the causal case (āfor/because ofā).
Hungarian allows this kind of extreme agglutination; English simply doesnāt, so translation has to unpack it into a phrase rather than a word.
