Átadja

Átadja is a Hungarian verb form that means “he/she/it hands over” or “delivers.” It is the third-person singular present indicative form of the verb átadni, which means to hand over, transfer, or deliver something from one party to another. The sense can be literal (giving a physical object) or figurative (transferring control, responsibility, or rights).

Etymology and forms: The verb átadni is formed from adni (to give) with the prefix át-, which conveys a sense of crossing over or transferring. In Hungarian, prefixal verbs often express completed or directional actions. The present tense forms include én átadom, te átadod, ő átadja, mi átadjuk, ti átadjátok, ők átadják. The form átadja specifically marks a singular third-person subject. Past tense is built as átadtam, átadtad, átadta, átadtuk, átadtátok, átadták. Future is usually expressed with fog: fog átadni, or in context with a future time reference.

Usage: Átadja is commonly used with a direct object in the accusative and a recipient or beneficiary indicated in the dative or with a possessive pronoun, e.g., "Ő átadja a könyvet a tanárnak" (He hands over the book to the teacher). It can describe concrete transfers (documents, equipment) as well as abstract transfers (control, responsibility, rights). The term appears in formal, legal, and everyday contexts.
