Fogyasztódni

Fogyasztódni is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to dwindle," "to diminish," "to waste away," or "to be consumed." It describes a process of gradual reduction in size, quantity, or intensity. The verb can be applied to various contexts, both literal and figurative.

In a physical sense, fogyasztódni can refer to a person or animal becoming thinner or weaker over time, often due to illness or lack of sustenance. It can also describe the gradual depletion of resources, such as a supply of food or money running out. For example, one might say that their savings are fogyasztódni if they are spending them rapidly.

Figuratively, fogyasztódni can describe the fading of emotions, memories, or hopes. A friendship might be said to be fogyasztódni if the connection between the individuals weakens. Similarly, a long-held dream could be described as fogyasztódni if it seems increasingly unlikely to be realized. The concept often implies a passive process, something happening to the subject rather than being actively done by it. The root of the verb, "fogy," means "to be few" or "to decrease," highlighting the core meaning of reduction.
