Oldhatóvá

Oldhatóvá is a form in Hungarian grammar used to express that something becomes soluble. It is derived from the adjective oldható, meaning soluble or dissolvable, together with the suffix -vá, which forms a participial adjective indicating a resulting state. The combination oldhatóvá is typically used with a verb of change, most often válik (to become), to describe a process that leads to solubility.

Formation and use: The base adjective oldható combines with -vá to yield oldhatóvá. This construction appears mainly in contexts describing transformation or processing, for example: "A felület oldhatóvá válik" (The surface becomes soluble) or "A keverés hatására az anyag oldhatóvá válhat" (Under stirring, the substance may become soluble). The form expresses a potential or resulting state rather than a static property, and it is common in technical or experimental writing.

Grammar notes: The -vá suffix follows vowel harmony rules, producing forms such as oldhatóvá. It functions as a participial adjective usable in predication and is typically part of a compound predicate with a linking verb of change, rather than standing alone.

Related terms: oldható (soluble), oldhatóság (solubility). The -ható/-hető family forms adjectives indicating capability, while -vá (or -vé) marks a resultant state in combination with change verbs.
