Tartozásait

Tartozásait is a Hungarian grammatical form used to refer to debts belonging to a specific possessor. It is not a separate concept; it is the definite direct-object form created from tartozás (debt, liability) with a third-person possessive marker and the definite-object suffix. In use, tartozásait translates roughly as “its debts” or “the debts of X,” where X is identified in the sentence.

Morphology and construction: the base noun tartozás means a debt or liability. By adding a possessive suffix, the form becomes tartozásai to indicate ownership by a third person singular possessor (for example, a company or person). The definite direct-object suffix -t is then appended, giving tartozásait. The resulting form is typically found when the debts are the specific, definite object of the verb, as in a finite clause.

Examples: A vállalat tartozásait rendezni kell. The company’s debts must be settled. A kormány a tartozásait csökkenteni kívánja. It intends to reduce its debts. These sentences show tartozásait functioning as a definite object referring to debts owned by a clearly identified possessor.

Usage and nuance: tartozásait appears mainly in formal, financial, or legal language. It is closely related to tartozás (debt, liability), adósság (debt), and kötelezettség (obligation). The choice between tartozás és hasonló terms depends on context and nuance; tartozás often emphasizes an outstanding obligation or liability.
