Szembeszállítja

Szembeszállítja is a Hungarian verb. It is the third-person singular, present tense, indicative mood form of the verb szembeszállni. The verb itself means to confront, to oppose, to stand up to, or to defy. Therefore, "szembeszállítja" translates to "he/she/it confronts," "he/she/it opposes," or "he/she/it stands up to."

This verb is used in contexts where an individual or entity actively challenges or resists another person, a group, a system, or an idea. It implies a direct confrontation or a strong stance against something. For example, one might say "A fiatal szembeszállítja a rendszert," which means "The young person confronts the system." The verb can also be used reflexively, as in "szembeszállítja magát," meaning "he/she/it confronts himself/herself/itself," often implying an internal struggle or a decision to face a personal challenge.

The etymology of szembeszállni comes from the combination of "szemben" (opposite, facing) and "szállni" (to alight, to descend, but in this context, to confront or to engage). Thus, the literal meaning suggests a direct confrontation or facing off against something. The "-ítja" ending signifies the third-person singular present tense, indicating an ongoing action performed by a single subject.
