önts

Önts is the second-person singular imperative form of the Hungarian verb önteni, meaning "to pour." It is used to address someone in an informal context and to command them to pour a liquid, typically into another container.

Grammatically, önts is formed from the verb stem önt- with the imperative suffix -s. It is part of the mood that expresses direct commands. The informal form contrasts with the formal singular imperative öntsön (you, formal) and the plural forms öntsetek or öntsék (depending on the politeness and number). The imperative can also appear with negation as ne önts, meaning "do not pour."

Usage and context, Önts is common in everyday speech, especially in cooking, serving drinks, or when giving quick instructions. It appears in recipes, instructions, or casual conversations. The form reflects Hungarian vowel harmony and consonant structure, and it is generally recognizable to native speakers as an imperative instruction.

Examples:

- Önts vizet a pohárba. (Pour water into the glass.)

- Ne önts túl sokat. (Don’t pour too much.)

- Öntsön vizet a pohárba, kérem. (Please pour water into the glass.)
