jósolsz

jósolsz is the second-person singular present indicative form of the Hungarian verb jósolni, meaning to predict or foretell. It is used when addressing someone informally (te-form). The verb belongs to the -olni class and follows the standard present-tense paradigm: én jósolok, te jósolsz, ő jósol, mi jósolunk, ti jósoltok, ők jósolnak. It is an imperfective, transitive verb, with the te-form ending in -sz.

Usage and nuance: The form jósolsz denotes making a prediction about future events or outcomes, whether based on data, intuition, or belief. It appears in everyday speech, in discussions of forecasts, speculative statements, or divinatory contexts. The tone is neutral, though the statement can carry both serious and lighthearted implications depending on context. The formal second-person form is not jósolsz; when using the polite form, one would typically use Ön jósol (third-person singular).

Examples: A simple sentence is “Ma te jósolsz előre.” which translates to “Today you predict in advance.” In literary or journalistic contexts the verb may appear with objects such as az eredményt (the result) or az időjárást (the weather), though natural word choice can vary.

Related terms: jóslat (prediction), jóslás (divination or forecasting).
