Questions & Answers about Az árus itt van.
Why is it az árus and not a árus?
Hungarian has two forms of the definite article:
- a before a consonant
- az before a vowel
Since árus begins with the vowel á, the correct form is az árus.
Examples:
- a ház = the house
- az ember = the person
- az árus = the vendor
What does árus mean exactly?
Árus means a seller, vendor, or peddler — someone who sells goods, often at a market or stall.
It is a fairly general word, so the exact English translation depends on context:
- market seller
- vendor
- trader
- peddler
So in this sentence, it refers to the vendor / the seller.
Why is van included here? I thought Hungarian often leaves out is.
