Felszedni

Felszedni is a Hungarian verb that translates to several English concepts depending on the context. Most commonly, it refers to gaining weight or putting on pounds, as in "sok húst ettem, ezért felszedtem" (I ate a lot of meat, so I gained weight). This is the most frequent usage in everyday conversation.

Another meaning of felszedni is to pick something up from the ground or a surface. For example, "a földről felszedni a leesett kulcsot" means to pick up the dropped key from the ground. It can also be used in the context of collecting or gathering something. For instance, "a gyerekek a játszótérről szedték fel a játékokat" translates to "the children picked up the toys from the playground."

In a more figurative sense, felszedni can mean to learn or acquire something, such as knowledge or a skill. For example, "sok új dolgot felszedtem az egyetemen" means "I learned many new things at university." It can also describe the act of absorbing or taking in information.

Finally, felszedni can sometimes refer to the act of shedding or removing something, particularly when referring to natural processes. For example, trees felszedni (shed) their leaves in autumn. However, this usage is less common than the others. The specific meaning of felszedni is almost always discernible from the surrounding words and the overall situation.
