Ifjúsági

Ifjúsági is a Hungarian word that translates to "youth" or "youthful" in English. It broadly refers to the period of adolescence and young adulthood, typically encompassing the ages from the end of childhood to the beginning of adulthood. This stage of life is characterized by significant physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development.

In a broader sense, "ifjúsági" can also describe things related to young people. This includes youth culture, youth organizations, youth activities, and youth services. For example, "ifjúsági klub" refers to a youth club, and "ifjúsági szállás" means youth accommodation or hostel. The concept often implies a focus on the interests, needs, and development of this age group.

Hungarian society, like many others, has various institutions and programs aimed at supporting and engaging its youth. These can range from educational initiatives and sports clubs to cultural events and volunteer opportunities, all falling under the umbrella of "ifjúsági". The term emphasizes the distinct phase of life and the unique characteristics and societal roles associated with it.
