Denzitású

Denzitású is a Hungarian adjective used to describe something that has a relatively high density. It is formed from denzitás, density, with the suffix -ú, and is most common in technical or scientific contexts. The term signals a qualitative property — that an object, material, or medium possesses a higher mass per unit volume than a reference standard.

In practice, denzitású is applied to solids, liquids, and gases to emphasize their density characteristics. Phrases such as nagy denzitású anyag (high-density material) or alacsony denzitású közeg (low-density medium) are typical. The term is also used in comparative descriptions, for example when contrasting dense materials with lighter ones, or describing states of matter where density changes under pressure or temperature.

Density itself is a quantitative property, commonly denoted by the symbol ρ and measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m^3) or grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm^3). The adjective denzitású does not designate a specific numerical value but indicates that the density is high relative to a given criterion or context.

Etymology and usage notes: denzitás comes from density, with -ú indicating possession of the property. In Hungarian, denzitású is primarily found in technical writing. In everyday language, more common terms for describing material compactness or texture include sűrű or sűrűség, whereas denzitású emphasizes the physical property of density in a formal sense.
