Hálós

Hálós is a Hungarian adjective meaning net-like or mesh-like. It is formed from the noun háló, net, with the suffix -os and is used to describe patterns, structures, or textures that resemble a net or lattice.

In scientific and technical language, hálós is commonly used to indicate a reticular or porous architecture. In biology and medicine the term can appear in phrases such as hálós kötőszövet, referring to reticular connective tissue that forms a mesh-like three-dimensional network of fibers. In materials science and geology, hálós szerkezet is used to describe interconnected networks or porous frameworks found in foams, ceramics, minerals, and other materials.

In everyday Hungarian, hálós can describe any surface or pattern with a net-like arrangement, for example a textile with hálós textúra or a city map described as a hálós útvonal-hálózat, implying an overall mesh of streets or pathways.

The word is closely related to háló and hálózat (net and network), and to the more specialized term retikuláris (reticular). While hálós emphasizes the appearance or structure of a net, it does not itself name a specific material or organism, but rather characterizes a pattern or organization that is net-like.
