Világát

Világát is a Hungarian grammatical form derived from the noun világ (world). It represents the third-person possessive form combined with the definite direct object suffix, and it translates roughly as “his/her/its world” when used as the direct object of a sentence. The base word world is modified by the possessive suffix -a (or -e, depending on vowel harmony and the possessor) and the definite object marker -t, yielding világát.

Morphology and usage: In Hungarian, when the possessed noun is definite and functions as the direct object, the suffix -t is appended. For third-person possession, the suffix -a/-e is added to világ, giving világa, and with the -t ending for a definite object, the form becomes világát. This form signals that the world being referred to belongs to someone specific and is the thing acted upon by the verb.

Examples:

- Ő megváltoztatta világát. (He changed his world.)

- A film hőse a világát védelmezte. (The film’s hero defended his world.)

Relation to other forms: мир Unlike világát, the form világ[a/e] is the plain possessive (his/her/its world) or can function as the subject or indirect object depending on the sentence structure. The choice between -a/-e and -t depends on possession and definiteness, illustrating Hungarian’s rich system of suffixal morphology.

Overview: világát is a standard example of how Hungarian encodes possession and definiteness in a single noun form, enabling precise reference to what belongs to someone while marking the word as the direct object of the verb.
