Örökölte

Örökölte is a Hungarian verb meaning "inherited." It is the past tense of the verb örököl, which means "to inherit." This term is primarily used in legal and familial contexts to describe the passing down of property, titles, or genetic traits from one generation to another. When someone örökölte something, they have legally or by natural disposition received it from a predecessor.

The concept of öröklés, or inheritance, is fundamental in Hungarian law, dictating how assets are distributed upon the death of an individual. This can include real estate, financial assets, personal belongings, and even debts. Beyond legal matters, the term can also be used metaphorically. For example, someone might be said to have örökölte a talent for music from their parents, indicating a natural aptitude passed down through genetics. The precise meaning within a sentence depends heavily on the context, but the core idea remains the transfer of something from an ancestor or previous owner.
