Between the alternative forms támadt and támadott, only the short form can be used in the sense "to occur" or "to arise". In the sense "to attack", the long form is more correct[2], but both are used. Examples: Támadt egy nagyszerű ötletem.I've got a great idea. (literally: A great idea occured to me.)
