Questions & Answers about A nézőpont különböző.

Why is there no word for is in A nézőpont különböző?

Because Hungarian usually leaves out the verb to be in the present tense, third person, when the predicate is a noun or an adjective.

So:

• A nézőpont különböző. = The point of view is different.

There is no separate word for is here, even though English needs one.

You do use forms of to be in other persons:

• Különböző vagyok. = I am different.
• Különböző vagy. = You are different.

And you also use it in past and future:

• A nézőpont különböző volt. = The point of view was different.

Why is the sentence starting with A?

A is the Hungarian definite article, meaning the.

Hungarian has two forms of the definite article:

• a before a consonant sound
• az before a vowel sound

Since nézőpont begins with n, a consonant, the correct form is a:

• a nézőpont = the point of view

If the next word began with a vowel, you would use az instead.

Why does különböző come after nézőpont instead of before it?
