Vonatot

Vonatot is the Hungarian definite direct object form of the noun vonat, meaning train. It is used when the train is the object of a verb and is treated as a specific, known entity by the speaker and listener. The form is created by adding the suffix -ot to the stem vonat, following standard Hungarian vowel harmony. In plural, the corresponding definite direct object form is vonatokat (for example, vonatokat as the object of a verb).

Usage examples:

- Látom a vonatot. (I see the train.)

- Megvárom a vonatot. (I will wait for the train.)

- A vonatot a pályaudvaron láttam. (I saw the train at the railway station.)

Plural usage:

- Látom a vonatokat. (I see the trains.)

- Megvárjuk a vonatokat. (We will wait for the trains.)

Relationship to the broader language:

Vonatot is a specific inflected form used within Hungarian grammar to mark definiteness of the direct object. The noun vonat itself refers generally to a rail vehicle used for passenger or freight transport, and the same noun can take different endings to indicate number, case, and definiteness in sentences.
