összehasonlították

összehasonlították is a Hungarian verb meaning "they compared" or "they have compared." It is the past tense, third-person plural form of the verb összehasonlít, which means "to compare." This verb is used in various contexts, from everyday conversations to academic research, whenever two or more things are placed side-by-side to identify their similarities and differences.

For example, one might say "Az árakat összehasonlították a boltokban" which translates to "They compared the prices in the stores." In a more formal setting, it could be "A kutatók a két eredményt összehasonlították" meaning "The researchers compared the two results." The act of comparing is fundamental to understanding, evaluating, and making decisions, and this verb encapsulates that action in the Hungarian language. The past tense indicates that the comparison has already taken place.
