Átjutottál

átjutottál is a Hungarian verb form meaning that you have gotten through or crossed something. It is the second person singular past tense form of the verb átjutni, which combines the prefix át- (across) with jutni (to reach or get to). The construction is used for both literal crossings, such as crossing a barrier or border, and figurative successes, like passing a test or overcoming a challenge.

Etymology and form: The prefix át- indicates moving from one side to another, and the base verb jutni comes from a root meaning to reach or arrive. The past tense form for túldoing the second person singular is átjutottál, with the double-t in the stem reflecting the Hungarian past tense pattern for this verb class.

Usage: In everyday language, átjutottál can describe physical passage (you went through a barrier or doorway) or non-physical achievements (you passed an exam, cleared a hurdle, or made it to the other side in a difficult situation). The phrase can stand alone as a complete clause or form part of a larger sentence, often paired with a noun indicating what was crossed or achieved.

Examples:

- Gratulálok, átjutottál a vizsgán. (Congratulations, you got through the exam.)

- Átjutottál a falon? (Did you get through the wall by crossing it physically, in a figurative sense, or is this used humorously?)

- Örülök, hogy átjutottál a megmérettetésen. (I’m glad you made it through the challenge.)
