demonstrálta

Demonstrálta is a form of the Hungarian verb demonstrál, meaning "to demonstrate" or "to show." It denotes that someone demonstrated something in the past and is commonly used in narrative or reported speech to describe a completed action.

Grammatical notes: Demonstrálta is the third-person singular past tense form in Hungarian. It is created by adding the past tense suffix -ta (with appropriate vowel harmony) to the verb stem demonstrál, yielding demonstrálta. The form is used when the subject is he or she (or a singular, understood agent) and the action of demonstrating is situated in the past.

Usage and examples: A tanár demonstrálta a kísérleti eljárást a diákoknak. During the class, the teacher demonstrated the experimental procedure to the students. A beszéd során demonstrálta, hogy a módszer hatékony. In a speech, the speaker demonstrated that the method is effective. These examples illustrate how demonstrálta functions in conveying a completed demonstration of a method, result, or idea.

Etymology and related forms: The verb demonstrál is a Hungarian borrowing derived from Latin demonstrare, with influences from Romance languages such as French démontrer. Related nouns include demonstrálás (the act of demonstrating) and demonstráció (a demonstration or public display), which share the same root.
