Forgatási

Forgatási is a Hungarian word-form derived from the noun forgatás, which broadly means turning, rotating, or shooting. As an adjective or participial form, forgatási is used to indicate that something relates to turning or rotation, or to the act of filming, depending on the context. The exact meaning is determined by the surrounding terms and the domain of use.

In filmmaking and media production, forgatási describes aspects connected to filming. It is used to refer to activities, plans, and locations associated with capturing footage, such as the filming process, shooting days, or on-location shoots. In this sense, forgatási is part of industry vocabulary that distinguishes filming work from pre-production or post-production tasks.

In science, engineering, and related technical fields, forgatási pertains to rotational phenomena. It can describe rotational motion or properties linked to rotation, such as rotational (forgatási) motion and angular velocity. When used in technical descriptions, phrases may incorporate terms for the axis of rotation, like forgató tengely, to specify the line about which an object turns. The exact phrasing varies by discipline, but the core idea is the relationship to rotation or turning.

Etymologically, forgatási stems from forgatás and the suffix -ási, which forms adjectives and nouns relating to a process or state. The word is thus versatile and context-dependent, common in Hungarian to distinguish either filming-related concepts or rotational physics and mechanics.
