Megváltoztatja

Megváltoztatja is a Hungarian verb form meaning “he/she changes it” or “is changing it” depending on the context. It is the third-person singular present indicative of megváltoztatni, the transitive verb meaning to change, alter, or modify something. The prefix meg- conveys a sense of completion or effect, and változtat- is the stem related to change, derived from the noun változás. The ending -ja marks the third-person singular subject.

In usage, megváltoztatja requires a direct object in the accusative that identifies what is being changed. Example: “Ő megváltoztatja a tervet.” (“He/She changes the plan.”) Another example: “A cég megváltoztatja a szabályokat.” (“The company changes the rules.”) The form is common in everyday language as well as in formal contexts such as journalism and policy discussions when describing deliberate alterations.

Etymology and related forms: meg- is a separable prefix indicating achievement or effect; változtat- comes from változás, change. The infinitive megváltoztatni means “to change (something).” Related verbs include változtat (to modify) and módosít (to adjust). The noun megváltoztatás refers to the act of changing or an alteration.
