Felszívott

Felszívott is a Hungarian adjective formed from the verb felszívni, meaning to absorb, soak up, or take up a liquid or substance. It describes a state in which a material, surface, or organism has already taken up and retained a substance, as opposed to actively absorbing it.

Common contexts include moisture or liquids that have been taken up by a material; for example, felszívott nedvesség refers to moisture that a substance has already absorbed. In textiles and paper, the term signals high absorbency. In soils, felszívott víz refers to water retained within the soil.

In physiology and medicine, the related process is felszívódás; substances that have entered the body may be described as felszívott (more commonly felszívódott). The term thus spans both everyday usage and technical domains, where it contrasts with ongoing or potential absorption.

Other forms include felszívó, describing something with the property of absorbing; felszívódás denotes the absorption process; abszorpció is a related term used in physics and chemistry. The distinctions reflect whether the emphasis is on the completed uptake (felszívott) or the mechanism and rate of uptake (felszívódás or abszorpció).
