Any hungarian speakers out there?

I am totally stumped on what orult means. Pronounced ooh-root? Please help, I'm trying to learn. I also need ult and hasznal, and Kapaszkodj. Thank you very much!

    _őrült_ is "crazy." Neither vowel is a sound that occurs in English, so ER-ult is the best I can manage for a (very) rough pronunciation guide.

    _ült_ is "he/she/it sat."

    _használ_ can be "he/she/it uses" or "it is of use: it helps" (most often encountered in the negative: _nem használ_ is "it doesn't help, it's no use")

    _kapaszkodj_ is "hold on!" (2nd person imperative of _kapaszkodik_, a verb with many meanings in the "to hold, to cling, to grab" family).
