Tartalmazták

Tartalmazták is the third-person plural past tense form of the Hungarian verb tartalmazni, meaning to contain or to include. It translates roughly as "they contained" or "they included" and is used to describe what multiple subjects held within them in the past.

Morphology and usage notes: The form is built from the verb stem tartalmaz- plus the past tense ending -ták, which marks a completed action by a plural subject. The corresponding singular forms are tartalmazta (he/she/it contained) and tartalmaztad (you contained). In sentences, tartalmazták governs a direct object in the accusative that names what was contained.

Contexts and examples: Tartalmazták is commonly found in descriptive or reporting prose, such as inventories, reports, summaries, or academic texts, where it specifies the contents of boxes, lists, datasets, or documents. It answers the question of what items were included or held by the subject in the past.

- A dobozok tartalmazták a játékokat. (The boxes contained the toys.)

- A dokumentumok tartalmazták a szükséges információkat. (The documents contained the necessary information.)

Related forms and alternatives: The present tense form tartalmazza or tartalmazza megnevezi a jelen kontextust; tartalmazó is a participial form meaning containing. The language also uses tartalmazni in infinitive to discuss the concept in general, or tartalmazta for singular past tense.
