vágtatott

Vágtatott is the past tense, third-person singular form of the Hungarian verb vágtat. This verb primarily translates to "galloped" or "trotted" in English, referring to the rapid movement of a horse or similar quadruped. It implies a fast, energetic pace, often used to describe a horse in full flight or a swift, determined run.

The verb can also be used metaphorically to describe rapid progress or a swift passage of time. For instance, one might say "az idő vágtatott" which translates to "time galloped by," indicating that time seemed to pass very quickly. Similarly, it can describe the swift movement of other things, like a carriage or even a person running at a high speed. The context in which "vágtatott" is used will determine its precise meaning, but the core idea of rapid, forward motion remains consistent. It is a common verb in Hungarian literature and everyday speech, vividly conveying a sense of speed and momentum.
