kontrakált

Kontrakált is a Hungarian verb that translates to "contracted" or "entered into a contract" in English. It is primarily used in legal and business contexts to describe the act of formalizing an agreement between two or more parties through a written or oral contract. The verb implies a mutual understanding and commitment to specific terms and conditions.

The root of the word "kontrakált" is "kontrakt," which is derived from the Latin word "contractus," meaning an agreement or covenant. The suffix "-ált" indicates the past tense of the verb, signifying that the act of contracting has already occurred. Therefore, "kontrakált" describes a past action of forming a contract.

Examples of its usage might include phrases like "A felek megkontrakálták a ház eladását," meaning "The parties contracted the sale of the house," or "Az új munkavállaló megkontrakált a céggel," translating to "The new employee contracted with the company." The verb emphasizes the formal and legally binding nature of the agreement. It is important to note that while "kontrakált" can refer to oral agreements, it is more commonly associated with written contracts due to their greater legal weight and clarity.
