A szekrényben még egy takaró is van.

Szekrény means cabinet / cupboard / wardrobe, depending on context.

The ending -ben means in. So:

• szekrény = cabinet, cupboard, wardrobe
• szekrényben = in the cabinet / in the cupboard / in the wardrobe

This is a case ending, not a separate word. Hungarian often uses endings where English uses prepositions.

A is the definite article, meaning the.

So:

• a szekrényben = in the cupboard / in the wardrobe
• literally: the cupboard-in

Hungarian has two forms of the:

• a
• az

The choice depends on the following sound. Before a consonant, Hungarian usually uses a. Since szekrény starts with sz, you get a szekrény.

Egy can mean both one and a/an.

Here it can be understood as a blanket or one blanket, depending on context. Because the sentence also has még and is, it often feels closer to another blanket or even a blanket too.

So:

• takaró = blanket
• egy takaró = a blanket / one blanket

Hungarian does not have separate words for a/an and one. It uses egy for both.

Még often means still, yet, or another / more, depending on context.

In this sentence, it most naturally suggests in addition:
there is also another blanket in the cupboard or there is even a blanket in there too.

With egy, the combination még egy often means:

• one more
• another

So még egy takaró can feel like another blanket.

Is usually means also / too / as well.

It comes after the word or phrase it belongs to. Hungarian uses is like a clitic particle, so its position is different from English.

Here:

• egy takaró is = a blanket too / also a blanket / even a blanket

Depending on emphasis, it may sound like:

• there is also a blanket
• there is even a blanket

So yes, the placement after takaró is normal Hungarian.

They both add something, but in different ways.

• még adds the idea of more / another / in addition
• is adds the idea of also / too / even

Together, még egy takaró is gives a sense like:

• even another blanket
• another blanket too
• there is also one more blanket

This combination often makes the sentence feel more emphatic than just egy takaró van.

Van is the verb is / exists / there is.

In Hungarian, word order is flexible and often shows focus or emphasis, not just grammatical roles. Putting van at the end is very natural in an existential sentence like this.

So A szekrényben még egy takaró is van has the feel of:

• In the cupboard, there is even another blanket
• There’s also another blanket in the cupboard

The final van is not strange. It is a common position in this kind of sentence.

Yes. This is best understood as an existential sentence: there is / there exists.

So van here does not mean that the blanket is something. It means the blanket is present / exists somewhere.

Compare:

• A takaró meleg. = The blanket is warm.
  Here is links subject and adjective.

• A szekrényben egy takaró van. = There is a blanket in the cupboard.
  Here van expresses existence/location.

Yes. Hungarian word order is flexible, but changing it changes the emphasis.

For example:

• A szekrényben még egy takaró is van.
  Neutral-to-emphatic: in the cupboard, there is also another blanket.

• Még egy takaró is van a szekrényben.
  Stronger focus on another blanket too.

• A szekrényben van még egy takaró is.
  Slightly more focus on the fact that it is in the cupboard.

These versions are all possible, but they do not feel exactly identical in emphasis.

This is because of vowel harmony.

Hungarian suffixes often come in front-vowel and back-vowel versions:

• -ban
• -ben

Since szekrény contains front vowels, it takes -ben:

• szekrényben

A back-vowel word would usually take -ban, for example:

• házban = in the house

So the choice is not random; it follows the vowel pattern of the word.

It can mean several kinds of storage furniture, depending on context:

• wardrobe
• cupboard
• cabinet
• sometimes closet-like storage unit

So the best English translation depends on the situation. If the sentence is about bedding, cupboard or wardrobe may both be reasonable.

Yes. In English, the best translation of is sometimes depends on context.

• also / too is the basic meaning
• even is possible when the sentence sounds surprising or emphatic

Because the sentence has még as well, egy takaró is can sound a bit stronger than plain also. So translations like these can all work:

• There is also another blanket in the cupboard.
• There is even another blanket in the cupboard.
• There’s another blanket in there too.

Hungarian usually uses nincs instead of nem van for there is not.

So a negative version would be:

• A szekrényben nincs még egy takaró sem.

Here sem is the negative partner of is.

Compare:

• is = also / too
• sem = not ... either / not even

So the negative structure changes more than just adding not.

In the present tense, van is often omitted in sentences like The blanket is warm:

• A takaró meleg.

But in existential sentences meaning there is, van is normally used:

• A szekrényben egy takaró van.

So in your sentence, van is needed because the meaning is about the existence of something in a location.
