   ‎petit + ‎-ot → ‎petiot

   ‎Pierre + ‎-ot → ‎Pierrot

   ‎Charles + ‎-ot → ‎Charlot

• -oter (“diminutive indicator for verbs”)

From -o- (linking vowel) +‎ -t (accusative suffix).

• IPA^(key): [ot]

-ot (accusative case suffix)

1. Back-vowel variant of -t. See details there.

   ablak (“window”) → Kinyitotta az ablakot. ― He/she opened the window.

   nagy (“big”) → nagyot sóhajt ― to have a deep sigh

   hat (“six”) → Hány könyvet vettél? - Hatot. ― How many books did you buy? - Six.

• (accusative case suffix): It can be added to nouns, adjectives, numerals and pronouns. Whether a suffix-initial vowel (linking vowel) will be used is hard to predict and thus needs to be learned with each word. A rule of thumb, however, is that older and shorter words tend to incorporate a vowel, rather than simply use -t. Variants:

  -t is added to words ending in a vowel. Final -a changes to -á-. Final -e changes to -é-. Final -o in foreign words changes to -ó-.

  -ot is added to most back-vowel words ending in a consonant

  -at is added to some back-vowel words ending in a consonant

  -et is added to unrounded (and some rounded) front-vowel words ending in a consonant

  -öt is added to most rounded front-vowel words ending in a consonant

  -∅ (zero form), optionally, after possessive suffixes, especially in the singular but sometimes also in the plural (and not infrequently after multiple-possession forms as well), except for the third-person singular (“his/her/its”, -ja/-je) as its omission would not reduce the number of syllables.

  Elviszem a kabátom(at/∅), kabátod(at/∅); kabátunk(at/∅), kabátotok(at/∅), kabátjuk(at/∅); kabátjaim(at/∅) etc.

  I’ll take my coat, your coat; our coat, [plural] your coat, their coat; my coats etc.

  It is also omitted usually from the accusative forms of first- and second-person singular personal pronouns (engem, téged (“me, you”)).
