Borítottak

Borítottak is a Hungarian verb form meaning “they covered.” It is the third-person plural past tense of the verb borít, which means to cover, enclose, or spread over, and can denote both literal covering and broader enveloping or obscuring. The verb is transitive and commonly takes a direct object, with the be- particle in phrases that express covering across a surface (for example, borította be, borították be).

In usage, borít is employed in weather descriptions, landscape imagery, and figurative language. For instance, a common meteorological construction is the plural past tense with be: A felhők borították be az eget (The clouds covered the sky). Another example with a collective subject is A köd és a felhők sokáig borították be a tájat (The fog and the clouds covered the landscape for a long time). Beyond weather, borít can describe the act of physically covering objects or spaces, or metaphorically something that overwhelms or obscures, such as darkness or gloom folding over a scene.

Formally, borít undergoes standard conjugation across tenses and persons. The word borítottak appears specifically when the subject is plural and the action is completed in the past. Related forms include borítok (I cover), borítasz (you cover), borítunk (we cover), borítotok (you all cover), and borítanak (they cover), with borította and borított (singular past) used for single-subject constructions.
