borította

Borította is a Hungarian verb form meaning “covered.” It is the third-person singular past tense of the verb borít, which means to cover or envelop. The form is used when describing that a subject covered something in the past. In Hungarian, past tense forms can combine with prefixes to indicate the manner or extent of the covering, for example beborította, meaning that something was completely covered.

Usage of borította appears in narrative and descriptive contexts. It can describe weather phenomena, such as fog or clouds covering a landscape, as well as objects that have been literally covered by another substance. It also serves in metaphorical expressions, where circumstances or atmospheres are said to have covered or overwhelmed something.

Examples:

- A köd beborította a várost. (The fog covered the city.)

- A dobozt a műanyag fólia borította be. (The box was covered with the plastic film.)

In grammar, borította is used with a third-person singular subject and can be part of sentences with different direct objects. It contrasts with present tense borítja (he/she/it covers) and with other past forms such as borították (they covered) or beborította (it entirely covered). The verb is common in everyday Hungarian and appears in both factual description and literary prose.
