Megfosztok

Megfosztok is a Hungarian verb form derived from megfosztani, meaning to deprive or strip someone of something. In standard usage, it expresses the speaker’s act of depriving another person. It is a transitive verb and is used with a direct object that denotes what is deprived and with a complement indicating who is deprived, often in constructions such as valakit valamitől.

Etymology and meaning: The form combines the prefix meg- with the root foszt- (to strip, deprive). The prefix meg- conveys completion or thoroughness, producing the sense of depriving entirely or depriving someone of a specified thing.

Usage and grammar: Megfosztok appears as a finite verb form in present tense, tied to the subject who performs the deprivation. Typical syntactic patterns include megfosztani valakit valamijétől (to deprive someone of something) or megfosztani valakit valamilyen jogától, amilyentől. The thing deprived is often expressed with a possessive suffix, while the person deprived is introduced as a pronoun or noun in the accusative.

Examples:

- Én megfosztok téged a jogaitól. (I deprive you of your rights.)

- A döntés megfosztotta őt a jogaitól. (The decision deprived him of his rights.)

Note: The exact person/number of megfosztok depends on context; megfosztok is a finite form of megfosztani used with the appropriate subject in present-tense constructions.
