verbal participle

verbal participle (plural verbal participles)

1. (grammar) A participle in Hungarian, similar in meaning to the past participle (e.g. apám által írt/írott könyv, “a book written by my father”) but expressing it with a past-tense definite-object verb form (apám írta könyv, literally, “a my-father wrote-it book”), which takes its argument as a subject in the nominative (like a finite verb), rather than with a phrase equivalent to “by……”, while the phrase functions as a participle, since the verb form qualifies the noun as an attribute.
