Kigördül

Kigördül is a Hungarian word that translates to "fall down" or "collapse" in English. It is a verb that describes the action of something or someone falling to the ground due to gravity or loss of support. The term can be used in various contexts, including physical descriptions, metaphors, and idiomatic expressions.

In a physical sense, kigördül can refer to the sudden and uncontrolled descent of an object or person. For example, a person might kigördül from a ladder if they lose their footing, or a building might kigördül during an earthquake. The verb can also be used metaphorically to describe the failure or breakdown of something, such as a relationship or a system.

Idiomatically, kigördül can be used to express the idea of losing one's composure or control. For instance, a person might say, "Az ember kigördült a szorult helyzetben" (The person fell apart in the difficult situation), meaning that they lost their composure under pressure.

The word kigördül is derived from the Hungarian verb "gördül," which means "to roll" or "to tumble." The prefix "ki-" indicates the direction or outcome of the action, in this case, falling down or collapsing. The term is an example of the rich vocabulary in the Hungarian language, which often uses prefixes and suffixes to create new words and convey specific meanings.
