Bocsátok

Bocsátok is the first-person singular present tense form of the Hungarian verb bocsát, which covers several related meanings, including to issue or publish something, to release or emit something, and to grant or bestow in appropriate contexts. In everyday use, the sense is determined by the object and by accompanying particles or prefixes. For example, bocsátok ki egy közleményt means I issue or publish a press release, while a LED fényt bocsát ki means a LED emits light. The verb also appears in compound forms and is frequently found in technical or formal language.

In official or formal contexts, a closely related and more common verb for “to issue” is kibocsátani, used for documents, bonds, statements, licenses, and other formal emissions. Bocsát is the base form that can carry more general meanings such as releasing energy or making something available, depending on the construction and context. The presence of prefixes like ki- or meg- can modify the sense, for example ki-/meg-bocsátás or similar constructions, though kibocsátani remains the standard term for formal issuance in many contemporary texts.

Grammatical notes: Bocsátok is the 1st person singular present form; other present tense forms are bocsátasz, bocsát, bocsátunk, bocsátotok, bocsátanak. The past tense is bocsátottam, and the past participle is bocsátott. The verb belongs to the group of Hungarian verbs that form tenses with typical suffixes, and it commonly appears with particle prefixes to express issuing or releasing acts.
