emlékeztetett

Emlékeztetett is a Hungarian verb form. It is the past tense, third-person singular conjugation of the verb emlékezik, which means "to remember" or "to recall." Therefore, "emlékeztetett" translates to "he/she/it remembered" or "he/she/it recalled." This form is used when describing an action of remembering that occurred in the past and was performed by a single, third-person subject. For example, "A régi dal emlékeztetett a gyerekkoromra" translates to "The old song reminded me of my childhood." In this sentence, "emlékeztetett" indicates that the song performed the action of reminding. The verb emlékezik itself is derived from the root "emlék," meaning "memory." The suffix "-tet" often denotes a causative meaning, suggesting that something or someone caused the remembering to happen. Thus, while "emlékezett" would mean "he/she/it remembered" in a more direct sense, "emlékeztetett" implies that something *caused* the remembering, often translated as "reminded."
