Forrási

Forrási is a Hungarian term with two principal uses: as an adjective and as a surname. As an adjective, it derives from forrás, meaning spring or source, plus the suffix -i, which forms adjectives indicating relation or origin. Consequently, forrási describes something connected with a spring or with a source. In practice, it is used to form noun phrases and compound terms in formal or literary contexts, though the ordinary term for spring water is forrásvíz (spring water).

As a surname, Forrási is a Hungarian surname formed from the same root. Surnames of this kind typically originate from a geographic feature or an estate name associated with a spring. The name is found among individuals of Hungarian heritage and appears in genealogical and biographical records.

In Hungarian onomastics and toponymy, forrási can occur in placenames or descriptive phrases denoting location relative to a spring, reflecting a common pattern of deriving names from natural features such as springs.
