Hungarian

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From the same stem as rí (“to cry, weep; to howl, roar, bellow”) +‎ -at (causative suffix). For the inserted -k-, compare rikácsol (“to screech, shriek”) and rikolt (“to squawk, cry out”).[1]

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): [ˈriːkɒt]
  • Hyphenation: rí‧kat
  • Rhymes: -ɒt

Verb

[edit]

ríkat

  1. (transitive) to make someone cry (weep)
    Antonym: nevettet (“to make someone laugh”)

Usage notes

[edit]

The more usual verb that means “to cry, weep” (sír) cannot be used with a causative suffix to express the above sense, as sirat actually means “to weep, mourn for/over someone or something”.
