búcsúzott

Búcsúzott is a Hungarian word that translates to "said goodbye," "parted," or "bid farewell" in English. It is the past tense form of the verb búcsúzik, which means "to say goodbye" or "to bid farewell."

The word can be used in various contexts, from informal farewells between friends to more formal occasions like departures from a job or the end of a gathering. It often carries a sense of finality or a significant parting. For example, "Elbúcsúztam a barátaimtól" means "I said goodbye to my friends." The prefix el- in "elbúcsúztam" emphasizes the completion of the act of saying goodbye.

In a more figurative sense, "búcsúzott" can also refer to something coming to an end or being retired. For instance, one might say "A régi szokás már búcsúzott" meaning "The old custom has already said goodbye," implying it is no longer practiced. The word evokes a sense of transition and the passing of time. It is a common and versatile term in the Hungarian language, used to mark the end of an encounter or the conclusion of a period.
