megkezdtél

Megkezdtél is a Hungarian word. It is the second-person singular past tense of the verb megkezd, which means "to begin" or "to start." Therefore, "megkezdtél" translates directly to "you began" or "you started." This form is used when addressing a single person informally.

For example, if someone started a task or a journey, one might say "Megkezdtél a munkát" (You started the work) or "Megkezdtél az utazást" (You started the journey). The prefix "meg-" indicates that the action of starting has been completed. The "-tél" ending signifies the second-person singular past tense. This grammatical structure is common in Hungarian for indicating completed actions performed by a single individual in the past, when speaking to them directly in an informal context. Understanding this conjugation is key to comprehending past tense verbs in Hungarian when referring to a singular, familiar addressee.
