Felhevül

Felhevül is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to heat up" or "to become heated" in English. It can be used in a literal sense, referring to an object or substance increasing in temperature. For example, a piece of metal might felhevül when placed in a fire, or water might felhevül when boiled.

Beyond its physical meaning, felhevül also carries a figurative sense, describing a situation or emotion that becomes intense or agitated. This can apply to arguments or discussions where tempers start to flare, or to a person's emotional state when they become angry, excited, or passionate. For instance, a political debate might felhevül, or an athlete might felhevül before a crucial match. The word implies a transition from a cooler or calmer state to one of heightened energy or intensity.
