Talk:holott

The archaic for sense seems strange to me. Could we get an example sentence? Qorilla (talk) 19:37, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
 * How about this (the archaic meaning is hiszen): Miért rontanátok hát magatokat, holott jól nem tehet veletek, Ti sem O véle.
 * The dictionary says that the word holott is also an archaic adverb, meaning ahol, although I believe I've heard this in dialectal speach. --Panda10 (talk) 21:20, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
 * If it is a synonym of hiszen, then we could change the archaic meaning from "for" to "as".
 * BTW I found a quotation for the adverbial meaning: Oda vezess, hol pálmafák virúlnak, / A napnak, illatoknak szép honába, / Holott az ember lelke, erejének / Öntudatára fejlődött egészen. (Az ember tragédiája, ch. 14) Einstein2 (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Archaic hiszen: Why do you think it should be translated it with as?
 * Archaic adverbial meaning: Thank you for finding the quotation! --Panda10 (talk) 21:52, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Because it is a more accurate translation of hiszen, in my opinion – or maybe "since" is even better.
 * Come to think of it, the "where" sense is probably not an adverb but a relative pronoun. Einstein2 (talk) 18:08, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
 * According to two Hungarian dictionaries it is vonatkozó határozószó. --Panda10 (talk) 19:05, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
