világították

Világították is a Hungarian verb. It is the past tense, third-person plural form of the verb világít, which means "to shine" or "to illuminate." Therefore, "világították" translates to "they shone" or "they illuminated" in English.

The verb can be used in various contexts. It might refer to literal illumination, such as when a group of people used flashlights to light up a dark area. For example, "A sötét erdőt zseblámpákkal világították" translates to "They illuminated the dark forest with flashlights." It can also be used metaphorically to describe shedding light on a subject or making something clear. For instance, "Az új bizonyítékok megvilágították az ügyet" could be translated as "The new evidence illuminated the case," though in this instance, the verb megvilágít, a related but distinct verb, might be more common. However, the principle of metaphorical illumination applies.

The verb's structure indicates a past action performed by multiple subjects. The "-ták" suffix is the standard marker for the third-person plural past tense in Hungarian verbs. Understanding this conjugation is key to comprehending the meaning of "világították" within a Hungarian sentence.
