megvásárolták

Megvásárolták is a Hungarian verb form meaning “they bought” or “they purchased.” It is the past tense, third-person plural form of megvásárolni, the verb meaning to purchase or buy. The form is built from the stem vásárol- with the prefix meg-, followed by the past tense marker -t and the plural definite object ending -ák, yielding megvásárolták. In use, megvásárolták is employed when the direct object of the purchase is definite or specified in the context, as in megvásárolták a céget (they bought the company) or megvásárolták a részvényt (they bought the share).

Usage notes: Megvásárolták is part of a larger paradigm. The infinitive is megvásárolni; other person-number forms include megvásároltuk (we bought), megvásároltad (you bought, singular informal), megvásárolta (he/she bought). Hungarian verbs in this class commonly require a definite object marker when the object is specific, which is reflected in the form of the ending.

Context and register: The form frequently appears in news reports, business language, and narrative prose describing acquisitions, asset purchases, or corporate takeovers. It signals a completed transaction and a specified object.
