Távozott

Távozott is a Hungarian verb form, the past tense of the intransitive verb távozik, meaning to depart or leave. It denotes that someone or something has moved away from a place, position, or situation. The term is commonly used in formal or semi-formal contexts such as news reporting, official statements, and obituaries.

In grammar, távozott is the third-person singular past tense form. It is used to refer to a subject that has left, for example: "A miniszter távozott a posztjáról" (The minister departed from the post). The form can appear in sentences describing organizational changes, leadership transitions, or departures from events or premises. It can also function in a broader sense to indicate that someone has left a social or professional setting.

Usage notes: távozott often carries a formal or neutral connotation, emphasizing an actual leaving rather than informal or temporary absence. It is a standard choice in reporting changes in leadership, employment, or affiliation.

Related terms include távozás (the act of departing/movement away) and távozó (departed person or departing object), while távozik is the infinitive form meaning "to depart." The word is distinct from synonyms like elhagyott or kilépett, which carry different nuances about the departure’s context or manner.

Examples:

- A miniszter pénteken távozott a posztjáról.

- A vállalat bejelentette, hogy a vezérigazgató távozott.
