elállsz

Elállsz is a Hungarian verb that translates to "you withdraw," "you back out," or "you desist" in English. It is the second-person singular present indefinite form of the verb eláll. The verb eláll itself is composed of the prefix "el-" which indicates removal or cessation, and the verb "áll" meaning "to stand" or "to stop." Thus, the literal meaning conveys the idea of ceasing to stand or stopping one's action.

The verb elállsz is used in various contexts. It can refer to retracting from an agreement, promise, or decision. For instance, if someone agrees to do something and then decides not to, they might say "Te elállsz a tervtől," meaning "You are backing out of the plan." It can also be used to indicate ceasing or stopping a physical action or movement, though this usage is less common in modern Hungarian. A more formal or legalistic context might see elállsz used to mean you abandon a claim or a legal proceeding.

The verb's conjugation follows standard Hungarian grammar rules for the second-person singular. The indefinite conjugation is used when the object of the action is not specified or is generally understood. This contrasts with the definite conjugation, which would be used if a specific object were being referred to. The context in which elállsz is used is crucial for understanding its precise meaning.
