Ön is aláírhatja itt, utána pedig kaphat egy másolatot.

Ön is the formal way to say you in Hungarian.

• Ön = formal you
• te = informal you

So this sentence is speaking politely to someone, such as a customer, client, or stranger.

Also, with Ön, Hungarian uses 3rd person verb forms, not 2nd person ones. That is why you get forms like aláírhatja and kaphat, not the forms used with te.

An informal version would be:

Te is aláírhatod itt, utána pedig kaphatsz egy másolatot.

Capitalizing Ön is a common sign of politeness in writing.

It is especially common in:

• letters
• forms
• customer-service language
• official communication

You may also see ön with a lowercase letter in less formal writing. Both exist, but Ön looks more respectful.

Here is means also or too.

So:

• Ön is = you too / you also

Hungarian usually places is after the word it belongs to.
So if the meaning is you too, it goes after Ön.

Compare:

• Ön is aláírhatja = You can also sign it
• if is were attached to another word, the emphasis would change

This is very normal Hungarian word order.

aláírhatja has several parts:

• alá- = under
• ír = write
• aláír = sign (literally something like write under)
• -hat/-het = can / may
• -ja = a 3rd person definite verb ending

So aláírhatja means roughly:

• he/she can sign it
• and with Ön, that becomes you can sign it in formal speech

This is a good example of how Hungarian packs a lot into one verb form.

This is because Hungarian verbs have different forms depending on whether the object is definite or indefinite.

In aláírhatja

The -ja shows the definite conjugation.

That usually means the verb has a definite object, either stated or understood.
Here, the thing being signed is not said explicitly, but it is clearly implied: for example, the form, the document, the contract, etc.

So:

• aláírhatja = you may sign it

In kaphat egy másolatot

Here the object is egy másolatot = a copy, which is indefinite because of egy.

So the verb uses the indefinite conjugation:

• kaphat = you may/can receive
• not kaphatja

This contrast is very useful for learners:

• definite object → definite verb form
• indefinite object → indefinite verb form

The suffix -hat/-het usually expresses:

• ability: can
• possibility
• permission: may

In this sentence, it most likely gives a polite sense of permission/possibility:

• aláírhatja = you may/can sign
• kaphat = you may/can receive

In English, can is often the most natural translation, but the Hungarian form is a little broader than just physical ability.

Here utána means after that or afterwards.

So the sentence structure is:

• first: sign here
• then: receive a copy

Be aware that utána can also mean after him/her/it in other contexts, but here it clearly functions as a time adverb:

• utána = afterwards

pedig is a connecting word that often means something like:

• and
• while
• whereas
• then
• for his/her/its part

In this sentence, it helps connect the two actions smoothly:

• utána pedig kaphat egy másolatot
• and afterwards you can receive a copy

It adds a slightly orderly, polished feel. In natural English, you often would not translate it with a separate word every time.

So here pedig is not something heavy or dramatic; it just helps the flow.

Hungarian word order is more flexible than English word order, and it often reflects emphasis.

Here:

Ön is aláírhatja itt, utána pedig kaphat egy másolatot.

The placement of itt makes here sound natural and relevant to the instruction: you can sign here.

Other word orders may also be possible, but they can shift emphasis a little. Hungarian often arranges sentence parts based on what is important, new, contrasted, or already known.

So the word order here is natural, but not the only theoretically possible order.

Because másolatot is the direct object of the verb kaphat.

Hungarian marks direct objects with the accusative ending, usually -t.

So:

• másolat = copy
• másolatot = a copy as an object

Since the sentence says receive a copy, the noun needs the object ending.

egy usually means a/an or sometimes one.

Here it means a:

• egy másolatot = a copy

It also helps make the object indefinite, which is why the verb is kaphat rather than a definite form like kaphatja.

So egy is doing two useful things at once:

• giving the English sense of a
• signaling indefiniteness

Yes, that is close to the structure.

A more literal breakdown would be:

• Ön is = you too
• aláírhatja = can sign it
• itt = here
• utána = after that / afterwards
• pedig = and then / and
• kaphat = can receive
• egy másolatot = a copy

So a fairly literal English version is:

You too can sign it here, and afterwards you can receive a copy.

Natural English might smooth this into something like:

You can sign here as well, and afterwards you can get a copy.

An informal version would be:

Te is aláírhatod itt, utána pedig kaphatsz egy másolatot.

Changes:

• Ön → te
• aláírhatja → aláírhatod
• kaphat → kaphatsz

This is because te uses normal 2nd person singular verb forms, while Ön uses 3rd person forms for polite address.
