Húzása

Húzása is a Hungarian noun that denotes the act or instance of pulling, dragging, or drawing an object toward or along a surface. It is formed from the verb húz (to pull) by means of the nominalizing suffix -ás, with an additional possessive suffix -a to indicate a specific subject performing the action. Thus húzása can be understood as “the pulling (by someone or something)” or “the act of pulling.”

The term is used across a wide range of contexts. In everyday language it can refer to simple, physical pulling, such as pulling a door open or pulling a cart, as in a sentence like a kutya húzása a kocsi után (the dog’s pulling of the cart). It also appears in contexts such as drawing a curtain, towing a line, or any situation in which force is applied to move something. In technical or scientific writing, related expressions such as húzóerő (pulling force) describe the physical quantity involved, while húzása can focus on the activity itself, possibly attributed to a particular agent.

Grammatically, húzása is the possessive nominalization of húz, signaling a specific act performed by a subject. It contrasts with the more neutral, stand-alone noun húzás, which generally denotes the act of pulling without explicitly marking the agent. Both forms are common, with the choice depending on emphasis and syntactic needs.
