Fogalmazza

Fogalmazza is the present tense, third-person singular form of the Hungarian verb fogalmazni, which means to formulate, to express in words, or to phrase. In formal contexts it can also correspond to the polite second-person singular when used with a subject such as Ön, for example: Ön fogalmazza meg a véleményét.

Usage and meaning:

Fogalmazza refers to the act of putting thoughts, ideas, or statements into precise language. It is commonly used in written and spoken Hungarian to attribute the action of formulating something to a person or to describe the process of shaping a statement. The related verb megfogalmazni means to formulate or to express clearly and completely, and fogalmazza meg often appears in constructions like fogalmazza meg a javaslatát or fogalmazza meg a véleményét.

Grammatical notes:

Fogalmazni is a transitive, regular verb. The form fogalmazza is used with a subject in the third person singular, and it can appear with an accompanying object or clause that specifies what is being formulated. In formal address, the same form may appear when assigning the action to the person addressed, using the appropriate subject.

Examples:

Ő fogalmazza meg a javaslatát. (He formulates his proposal.)

Ön fogalmazza meg a véleményét a találkozón. (You formulate your opinion at the meeting.)

A szöveg megfogalmazza a fő állítást. (The text formulates the main claim.)
