módosítva

Módosítva is a Hungarian term meaning modified or altered. It is the past passive participle of the verb módosít (to modify, alter, amend, revise) and is used as an adjective or predicative participle to indicate that something has undergone modification. In practice it often appears in contexts involving documents, data, software, or legal texts to signal that changes have been applied since a previous state. It can be used with forms of the verb to be, for example: a dokumentum módosítva van or a dokumentum módosítva lett.

Etymology and form: módosítva is formed by the verb stem módosít plus the participial suffix -va/-ve, producing a past passive participle that conveys the state of having been modified. The word functions both as a modifier and as part of a predicate construction, depending on sentence structure.

Usage and nuance: In many Hungarian contexts, módosított is also common as a straightforward attributive adjective (a módosított verzió = the modified version). Módosítva tends to emphasize the state resulting from an action performed on the item, often appearing in predicative clauses or as a label indicating a changed item in a list or interface. The choice between módosítva and módosított can reflect differences in emphasis or syntactic position.

Examples:

- A dokumentum módosítva van.

- Ez a fájl módosítva maradt.

- A módosított verzió frissítve lett egy új változattal.
