tisztázták

Tisztázták is a Hungarian verb form meaning “they clarified” or “they made something clear.” It is the past tense, third-person plural form of the verb tisztáz, which conveys the action of resolving ambiguity, presenting facts more clearly, or correcting misunderstandings. The related noun tisztázás refers to the act or process of clarification.

Grammatical notes and usage: tisztáz is a transitive verb; it takes a direct object representing what is clarified (for example, a statement, facts, or an issue). The past tense suffix -ták marks both the definite past and third-person plural subject. The corresponding singular past forms are tisztázta (he/she clarified) and tisztáztuk (we clarified is incorrect; the correct plural form is tisztáztuk for “we clarified”). The infinitive of the verb is tisztázni, and the related noun is tisztázás, or sometimes tisztázás kifejezések for “clarification expressions.”

Common contexts: tisztázták appears frequently in news reporting, politics, and legal or investigative contexts, where multiple actors or groups address questions and set the record straight. Examples:

- A tanúk tisztázták a történteket. (The witnesses clarified the events.)

- A vitában részt vevők tisztázták a félreértéseket. (Those taking part in the dispute clarified the misunderstandings.)

- A közlemény tisztázta a körülményeket. (The communiqué clarified the circumstances.)

Etymology and related forms: tisztáz derives from the root related to clear or clean and the general Hungarian pattern for causative or action verbs. The noun tisztázás denotes the act of clarifying, while tisztázó is an adjective or noun form referring to clarification-related concepts.
