kijelentette

Kijelentette is a finite verb form in Hungarian, namely the third-person singular simple past tense of kijelenteni, which means to declare, state, or announce something publicly. The prefix ki- adds a sense of outward presentation, while jelenteni comes from jelent (to declare or report). The combination kijelenteni denotes making a statement publicly or officially.

As a past-tense form, kijelentette is used to report that someone declared something in the past. It is a transitive verb and typically appears with a direct object or with a subordinate clause introduced by hogy (that). For example: “A miniszter kijelentette, hogy a kormány megfontolja a javaslatot.” or “A tanú kijelentette, hogy látta az eseményt.” These constructions show how the verb links the subject to the content of the declaration.

Usage and context: kijelentette is common in news reporting, official statements, press conferences, and transcripts, where authors report what someone has claimed or asserted. Related terms include kijelentés (a statement or declaration), kijelenteni (to declare), and állítani (to claim or state). The form is part of standard Hungarian verb conjugation and can be used with various subjects and contexts to convey a completed declaration in the past.
