elolvastad

Elolvastad is a Hungarian verb form that means “you have read through” or “you read to the end.” It is the second-person singular past definite form of the verb elolvasni, which means to read through or finish reading something. The form combines the prefix el- with olvasni and carries the definite past tense suffix, typically used when the object of reading is definite.

Morphology and usage notes: The prefix el- signals completion or reaching the end, and olvasni is the infinitive for “to read.” In the past definite (a mood used with definite objects in Hungarian), the second-person singular ending appears as -d, producing elolvastad. The form is typically used when the object is known or specified, for example with a definite noun or pronoun: Elolvastad a levelet? (Did you read through the letter?) Elolvastad már a részt a könyvből? (Have you read through that section of the book yet?)

Grammatical role: Elolvastad is a finite verb form and functions within a clause to indicate that the addressed person completed the act of reading something. It can appear in questions, statements, or narratives, often accompanied by a definite object for clarity.

Relation to related terms: The base verb is olvasni (to read), with el- as a prefix that changes aspect toward completion. Related forms include olvasni, elolvasni, olvasás (reading as a noun), and elolvasás (the act of reading through). The form elolvastad is one of several person- and tense-specific inflections used in Hungarian verb conjugation.
