Questions & Answers about A megoldás létezik.

Why is there an A at the beginning of the sentence?

A is the Hungarian definite article, equivalent to English the.

So:

• a megoldás = the solution

Hungarian has two forms of the definite article:

• a before most consonants
• az before vowels

For example:

• a ház = the house
• az alma = the apple

In A megoldás létezik., megoldás starts with a consonant sound, so a is used.

What does megoldás mean literally, and how is it built?

Megoldás means solution.

It comes from the verb megold, which means to solve or to untie/unfasten, depending on context.

A very common Hungarian noun-forming ending is -ás / -és, which often creates an action or result noun from a verb.

So very roughly:

• megold = solve
• megoldás = solving / solution

In this sentence, it means solution in the normal English sense.

Why does the sentence use létezik instead of van?
