Kioszt

Kioszt is a Hungarian verb meaning to allocate or distribute something among recipients. It is used when assigning tasks, resources, prizes, or roles within organizations, events, or administrative settings.

The infinitive form is kiosztani, and the related noun is kiosztás, which denotes the act or result of distribution or allocation. The prefix ki- adds a sense of outward distribution, while oszt is the root meaning to share or divide.

In usage, kioszt describes intentional, often orderly distribution carried out by a person in a position of authority. For example, a supervisor may kiosztani tasks among team members or a committee may kiosztani prizes to winners. The tense forms follow standard Hungarian conjugation; the third-person singular present form is commonly kioszt, while past forms appear as kiosztott or kiosztották, depending on voice and number.

Kioszt is frequently found in formal, administrative, or organizational contexts, such as workplaces, schools, competitions, and event planning. It conveys a deliberate act of assigning what each recipient will receive or undertake, rather than a casual or spontaneous distribution.

Related terms include osztás (distribution, division) and elosztás (allocation, dispersion). The noun kiosztás and the adjective kiosk‑related forms tie into broader concepts of resource management, scheduling, and task assignment.
