tagadsz

Tagadsz is a Hungarian verb form meaning "you deny," serving as the second-person singular present tense of the verb tagad, which means to deny or refute. It is used when addressing someone directly to indicate that they deny a statement or claim.

Morphology and etymology: Tagadsz is built from the verb stem tagad- with the suffix -sz that marks the second person singular present. The base verb tagad denotes denial or rejection, and tagadsz is one of its standard personal forms in everyday Hungarian. The pronunciation is roughly [ˈtɒɡɒd͡z], with the stress on the first syllable.

Usage: Tagadsz appears in ordinary speech, debates, and prose to express that the addressed person denies something. The tone can be neutral or slightly confrontational depending on context. Example: Te tagadsz mindent, amit elmondtak. (You deny everything that has been said.)

See also: tagad, the infinitive meaning "to deny"; tagadás, the noun form meaning "denial"; tagadó, related as an adjective or noun referring to a negative or denying stance.

Note: Tagadsz is distinct from related forms like tagadsz meg minden állítást, where the verb is used with additional objects to specify what is being denied. It functions as a ordinary, reusable present-tense form in Hungarian grammar.
