Megragadja

Megragadja is a Hungarian verb form meaning “he/she grabs” or “seizes.” It is the third-person singular present indicative form of the verb megragadni, which means to seize, grab, or grasp. The form is built from the stem ragad with the prefix meg- indicating a completed or decisive action, plus the personal ending -ja that marks a third-person singular subject.

In usage, meg- contributes a sense of totality or immediacy to the action of grabbing. Megragadni can refer to physically seizing something or to figurative grasping, such as opportunities or ideas. Common sentences include examples like “Ő megragadja a lehetőséget” (He seizes the opportunity) or “A gyerek megragadja a kezét” (The child grabs the hand). The form varies to reflect different subjects and numbers, for instance megragadják (they seize) or megragadom (I seize).

Related forms include the infinitive megragadni and other conjugations such as megragadom, megragadsz, megragadja, and megragadják, which provide person- and number-specific endings for the present tense. The verb can appear in past forms as well, e.g., megragadta (he/she seized) or megragadtam (I seized) depending on the tense and definiteness. Megragadja, therefore, functions as a common, versatile verb form in Hungarian for describing decisive grabbing or seizing in both literal and metaphorical senses.
