"Marxat" means "left" or "gone" (past participle of "marxar," to leave).

  • He marxat a la botiga per comprar menjar.

    I have gone to the store to buy food.

    In this sentence, 'marxat' is used as the past participle form of 'marxar,' indicating a completed action (I have gone). This usage demonstrates its employment in forming the past perfect tense.

  • Li vaig dir que havia marxat abans d'acabar el projecte.
