How to say "to watch television" in Hungarian?
Hi guys,
which one of the following two is the correct translation for "he watches television":
1. nézi TV-ét
2. nézi a TV-ét
?
I believe it should be 2., but I just found number 1. on a Hungarian-language website, so I am confused…
Thank you

He watches TV is tévét néz or tévézik.
Nézi a tévét means he is watching the television.
The definite article does not change much on the meaning it is true however is certain situation the nuance can make a difference. Tévézik or tévét néz is a bit more general, while Nézi a tévét adds a bit of extra information that he is not reading, or studying but watching the tv.
