csatlakoztál

Csatlakoztál is the second-person singular past tense form of the Hungarian verb csatlakozni, meaning to join, to connect, or to enroll. It is used to indicate that the addressed person has joined or connected to something in the past, and it can appear in social, organizational, or technical contexts.

Etymology and meaning: The verb csatlakozni derives from the root csatol, meaning to fasten or attach, with the usual Hungarian verbal affixes that form the infinitive and conjugations. The sense evolved from a literal act of attaching to a point to the more general idea of joining a group, network, project, or activity.

Usage and grammar: Csatlakoztál accompanies a destination in the appropriate case—typically with a suffix like -hoz, -hez, or -höz, depending on vowel harmony and the target of joining. Examples include: Csatlakoztál a projekthez? (Did you join the project?) Csatlakoztál a csoporthoz? (Have you joined the group?). It is the informal second-person singular form; the formal or plural forms would be csatlakoztálatok, csatlakozott, etc., depending on the subject and tense.

Related terms: csatlakozás (joining, accession), csatlakozó (connector, plug), csatlakoztatás (connecting, installation). These words share the same root and pertain to the ideas of joining, connecting, or attaching in various contexts.
