noun

Meaning 1

A participle in Hungarian, similar in meaning to the past participle but expressing it with a past-tense definite-object verb form, which takes its argument as a subject in the nominative (like a finite verb), rather than with a phrase equivalent to “by ...”, while the phrase functions as a participle, since the verb form qualifies the noun as an attribute.
