Félszélszeletelt

Félszélszeletelt is a Hungarian term that translates to "half-sawn" or "partially sawn" in English. It describes a state where an object, most commonly wood, has undergone a sawing process but has not been completely cut through. This can occur for various reasons, such as an intentional stop in the sawing process, a malfunction of the saw, or when a specific cutting technique requires the piece to remain attached.

In woodworking and construction, félszélszeletelt pieces might be used for temporary bracing or as part of a joint that relies on partial severance for its integrity. For instance, a log might be félszélszeletelt to create a base for carving or to facilitate a specific type of joinery where the wood needs to be bent or manipulated after the initial cut. It implies a deliberate or accidental incompleteness in the cutting operation, leaving a portion of the material still connected. The term itself emphasizes the partial nature of the action, differentiating it from a full cut or a complete separation.
