Questions & Answers about A szakember munkája kiváló.
Why is there no word for is in A szakember munkája kiváló?
In Hungarian, the verb to be (van) is usually left out in the present tense, third person when one noun or adjective is equated with another.
So:
- A szakember munkája kiváló. = The professional’s work is excellent.
But in other persons or tenses, van or another form of to be appears:
- A munkám kiváló. = My work is excellent.
- A munkája kiváló volt. = His/her work was excellent.
So the missing is is completely normal here.
