buszt

Buszt is a form used in Hungarian grammar, not a standalone word with its own lexical meaning. It is the definite direct-object form of the noun busz, which means “bus” in Hungarian. In sentences where the bus is the specific, known object of the action, the definite direct object is marked with the suffix -t, producing buszt (for example, látom a buszt, “I see the bus”).

Etymology and usage notes: busz is a loanword in Hungarian, derived from Western European languages for the vehicle. The suffix -t attaches to the noun to indicate definiteness of the direct object, and it may appear with various noun stems according to standard Hungarian inflection rules. The buszt form is specifically used when the speaker assumes the listener knows which bus is being referred to, rather than an indefinite or unspecified bus.

Examples:

- Látom a buszt. (I see the bus.)

- A buszt már elvitték reggel. (The bus was already taken away in the morning.)

- Megláttam a buszt a megállóban. (I saw the bus at the stop.)

Limitations: Outside Hungarian grammar, buszt does not function as an independent term or concept. It is primarily a grammatical inflection used in describing how definite direct objects are marked in Hungarian sentences involving the noun busz.
