vívott

vívott is a Hungarian verb form derived from the infinitive vívni, which means to fence or to duel. In standard usage, vívott represents the simple past tense for the third-person singular, indicating that someone fenced or dueled in the past. The same verb forms in other persons in the past tense as vívtam (I fenced), vívtál (you fenced), vívtunk (we fenced), vívtatok (you all fenced), and vívtak (they fenced).

Form and usage notes: the past tense in Hungarian is built by adding the suffix -t or -tt/ -tt after the stem, with variations for phonology and vowel harmony. For the stem vív-, the third-person singular past form is vívott. This form is used when the subject is he, she, or it. In sentences with other subjects, different past forms are used as listed above. The form vívott is therefore a finite, conjugated verb form, not a lexical noun.

Examples:

- Ő vívott egy párbajt. (He fenced a duel.)

- A harcos megvívott több ellenfelet. (The warrior fenced with several opponents.)

Context: vívott can appear in narrative or historical contexts, as well as in descriptions of fencing or dueling events. It is related to the related noun and verb forms vívni (infinitive) and vívó (fencer).
