láttatik

Láttatik is a Hungarian verb form derived from the verb "lát" which means "to see". Specifically, it is the third-person plural passive present tense form. This means it translates to "they are seen" or "it is seen by them".

The passive voice in Hungarian, like in many languages, shifts the focus from the doer of the action to the recipient of the action. Therefore, when "láttatik" is used, the subject of the sentence is what is being seen, rather than who is doing the seeing. For example, "A ház láttatik a domb tetejéről" means "The house is seen from the top of the hill". Here, "a ház" (the house) is the subject being seen.

This verb form is not as commonly used in everyday spoken Hungarian as its active counterparts. It tends to appear more frequently in formal writing, literature, or older texts. Its usage can sometimes sound archaic or overly literary in casual conversation.

In some contexts, "láttatik" can also imply a more general or less direct observation, suggesting something is apparent or visible rather than actively being looked at by a specific group of people. It carries a sense of being observable or presenting itself to view.
