élénkít

élénkít is a Hungarian verb meaning to enliven, invigorate, or stimulate, making something more lively or vivid. It can refer to people, moods, atmospheres, or communications, and is used to describe actions that increase energy, interest, or engagement. For example, a speech may élénkíteni a közönséget (enliven the audience), or music can élénkíteni egy hangulatot (make a mood more lively). The term is common in journalism, education, marketing, and everyday language when there is an intention to raise vitality or attention.

Etymology and form: the verb derives from élénk (lively, vivid) with the -ít suffix, which generally marks causation or transformation. The infinitive is élénkíteni; the present third-person singular form is élénkíti, and past forms include élénkítette. This construction is typical for Hungarian causative or transitive verbs that create a state of liveliness in the subject.
