Demonstráltál

Demonstráltál is the second-person singular past tense form of the Hungarian verb demonstrál, meaning to demonstrate, illustrate, or prove something. It denotes a completed action in the past performed by you (informal singular) and is used in the indicative mood. The form is common in both everyday speech and written Hungarian.

Demonstrál is a regular -ál verb, with the stem demonstrál-. The past simple second-person singular is formed by adding the suffix -tál to the stem, yielding demonstráltál. The corresponding present tense second-person singular is demonstrálsz, and the past participle is demonstrált. For reference, the full conjugation in the simple past is: demonstráltam, demonstráltál, demonstrálta, demonstráltuk, demonstráltátok, demonstrálták.

In use, demonstráltál is employed to recount a demonstrated action in the past. It can appear in educational, scientific, or everyday narration. For example: Tegnap demonstráltál egy kísérletet a laborban. A prezentációd során demonstráltál egy példát a jelenségre.

Related terms include demonstrál (the base verb), demonstráció (demonstration), and demonstratív (demonstrative). The word demonstrates how Hungarian regularly integrates loan-derived roots into its verb classes, adapting them with standard suffixes to indicate person and tense.
