meghaladott

Meghaladott is a Hungarian adjective and past participle derived from the verb meghaladni, meaning to surpass or exceed. In use, it describes something that has already surpassed a threshold, limit, expectation, or standard. The term is most common in formal, technical, or regulatory writing.

Etymology and grammar: Meghaladott is formed from meghaladni with the past participle suffix -ott. As an adjective, it agrees with the noun it modifies and can appear in attributive position (meghaladott érték, meghaladott határérték) or in predicative constructions with a suitable linking verb.

Typical contexts: Financial reporting, compliance assessments, risk analyses, and statistics frequently use meghaladott to denote figures that exceed set limits. In everyday Hungarian, speakers more commonly use meghaladta (past tense of meghaladni) to express that something has exceeded a limit, while meghaladott is reserved for formal or fixed expressions.

Notes: Some dictionaries list meghaladott as the past participle of meghaladni, and it is especially common in compound noun phrases such as meghaladott összeg or meghaladott határérték.
