álkozik

álkozik is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to be drunk" or "to be intoxicated" in English. It describes a state of being affected by alcohol, often implying a loss of self-control or impaired judgment. The word is derived from the noun "alkohol," meaning alcohol.

The verb is commonly used in everyday conversation to describe someone who has consumed too much alcohol. For instance, one might say "ő már nagyon álkozik" which translates to "he/she is already very drunk." The degree of intoxication can be implied by context or modified with adverbs.

álkozik can also be used figuratively, though less commonly, to describe a state of being overwhelmed or dazed by something other than alcohol. However, its primary and most frequent meaning relates directly to the consumption of alcoholic beverages. The verb is conjugated according to standard Hungarian grammar rules. It is an intransitive verb, meaning it does not take a direct object. The past participle form, "álkositott," can be used as an adjective meaning "drunk" or "intoxicated."
