Usage notes

The above possessive forms of time units often express the time past: with a durative verb (often in the present-tense), an action or event that has (had, will have) been going on for a given time until the given moment, or with an instantaneous verb (in the past tense), an action or event that happened a certain time ago or before. For example:

Fél órája várom a vonatot. ― I have been waiting for the train for half an hour.

Fél órája vártam a vonatot. ― I had been waiting for the train for half an hour (or: I waited, I was waiting for the train half an hour ago).

Fél órája (= fél órával ezelőtt) érkeztem meg. ― I arrived half an hour ago.

Fél órája (= fél órával előtte/​korábban/​azelőtt) érkeztem meg. ― I (had) arrived half an hour before.

Of course, the usual possessive sense is also possible in different types of sentences:

Fél órája volt még a vizsgáig. ― He had half an hour left until the exam.

(The equivalent French phrase il y a is also constructed with an apparent possessive, although this Hungarian possessive can also correspond to depuis.) See also the entries of the possessive suffixes: -a/-e/-ja/-je for more examples.
