korlátozódott

Korlátozódott is a Hungarian verb form that expresses a change in condition, roughly meaning "has become restricted" or "has been constrained." It is the past tense form of the intransitive, passive-voice verb korlátozódik and is used to describe how something has moved into a restricted state. Typical subjects include access, services, permissions, or processes.

Etymology and grammar: The word is built from the root korlátoz- (to restrict) with the suffix -ódik, indicating a reflexive, intransitive process, and the past tense ending -ott in korlátozódott. The subject of the sentence is the thing that has become restricted. Because it denotes a change of state, it is often used in formal, bureaucratic, or technical contexts. It contrasts with korlátoz, a transitive verb meaning “to restrict something” performed by an agent.

Usage and nuance: Korlátozódott emphasizes the result rather than the act of restricting. It is commonly employed when reporting policy changes, safety measures, technical limitations, or shifts in access rights. It can describe restrictions applied to systems, data, services, or movements. The construction is typically used with a clear subject such as hozzáférés (access), szolgáltatás (service), or lehetőségek (opportunities).

See also: korlátozás (restriction), korlátozódás (the process of becoming restricted), korlátozott (restricted), korlátozódik (to become restricted). The term forms part of a broader set of Hungarian expressions describing changes in availability or permissions.
