Szolgáltatódik

Szolgáltatódik is a Hungarian verb form belonging to the family around the concept of service or provision. It represents the middle/ passive voice and is used in the third person singular present tense to express that a service is being provided to someone or that a service relationship is being established or maintained.

Etymology and formation: the form derives from the verb szolgáltatni (to provide a service) or the stem szolgáltat- related to the noun szolgáltatás (service) and the agent noun szol­gáltató (service provider). The suffix -ódik is a Hungarian morphological element that marks a middle or reflexive/ passive nuance, signaling that the subject is affected by the action rather than actively performing it.

Usage and register: szol­gáltatódik is largely found in formal, legal, or technical texts rather than everyday speech. It tends to appear in descriptions of processes where a service is brought to bear by a provider, or where a system is characterized as being serviced or supplied. Because it is relatively specialized, it may sound awkward in casual conversation and is more common in written documentation, regulatory language, or contract wording.

Examples and notes: in practice, language users often opt for clearer alternatives such as szol­gáltatja (he/she provides a service) or the passive szol­gáltatott (provided). Szolgáltatódik thus serves a niche role to convey middle-passive nuance about service provisioning or the status of being served in formal discourse.
