Békát

Békát is a term that can refer to several things, depending on the context. In Hungarian, "béka" means frog. Therefore, "békát" is the accusative case of this word, often used when a frog is the direct object of a verb, meaning "a frog" or "the frog" in a sentence.

Beyond the literal meaning, "békát" can also be used informally in Hungarian to describe a specific type of small, often boiled or fried, pastry that is typically served as a snack. These pastries are generally savory and might be filled with ingredients like cheese or meat. The shape of these pastries can sometimes resemble a frog, hence the name.

In some colloquial contexts, the term "békát" might also be used metaphorically. It could refer to something small, insignificant, or even slightly unpleasant, depending on the tone and specific situation. However, this usage is less common than the literal or pastry-related meanings. The precise interpretation of "békát" is therefore heavily dependent on the surrounding words and the overall conversation.
