jöttél

Jöttél is a Hungarian verb form that serves as the second-person singular past tense of the verb jönni, meaning "to come." It translates to "you came" in English and is used when speaking to one person in an informal, familiar context.

Morphology and related forms: The past tense stem is jött-, formed from the root jön- with the past marker -tt- and the second-person singular ending -él. The full past tense paradigm of jönni includes: én jöttem, te jöttél, ő jött; mi jöttünk, ti jöttetek, ők jöttek. The form jöttél specifically marks that the subject is “you” (singular, informal). Other related forms include jöttem (I came), jöttünk (we came), jöttek (they came), and jöttetek (you all came).

Usage notes: Jöttél is commonly used in everyday speech to describe a past event involving the addressee. It can appear in questions such as Jöttél ma reggel? ("Did you come this morning?"), or as a statement: Jöttél! ("You came!"). Because it is informal, it is typically used with familiar or casual interlocutors. In formal or polite address, Hungarian often uses different pronouns with the third-person verb form, or other constructions, depending on context.

Examples:

- Jöttél a megbeszélt időben. (You came at the agreed time.)

- Jöttél? Mit hoztál? (Did you come? What did you bring?)
