elérve

Elérve is the past participle form of the Hungarian verb elérni, meaning to reach or to achieve. It is used to express that the action of reaching has been completed relative to another moment or event. The form functions as a verbal participle and can act as an adjective modifying a noun or as an adverbial participle in subordinate clauses, signaling a completed state.

Etymology and grammar: elérve is formed by adding the suffix -ve to the stem elér-, which comes from elérni. In Hungarian, participles such as elérve can appear in front of a main clause to indicate the sequence of events, or after a noun to describe a state resulting from the action. It often conveys a sense of “having reached” or “reached.”

Usage and examples: In formal and narrative contexts, elérve the goal or elérve a célt introduces a subsequent action. Examples include: Elérve a célt, a csapat büszkén ünnepelt. Elérve a kívánt eredményt, az intézmény folytatta a fejlesztést. These constructions communicate that the reaching of a goal or result occurred before the following clause.
