Questions & Answers about A veszélyes hulladék külön van.
A is the definite article, equivalent to the in English.
So:
- a veszélyes hulladék = the hazardous waste
Hungarian has two articles:
- a / az = the
- egy = a / an
Here, a is used because the sentence refers to a specific thing or category already identifiable in context: the hazardous waste.
Hungarian adjectives usually do not change to agree with the noun in gender, number, or case the way they do in many Indo-European languages.
So:
- veszélyes = hazardous / dangerous
- hulladék = waste
The adjective stays the same:
- veszélyes hulladék = hazardous waste
- veszélyes anyag = hazardous material
- veszélyes dolgok = dangerous things
This is normal in Hungarian: adjectives are generally invariable when directly modifying a noun.
