Konkretizált

Konkretizált is a Hungarian adjective and past participle formed from the verb konkretizál, meaning to make something concrete or to specify it more precisely. It describes statements, plans, data, or concepts that have been clarified and rendered actionable, moving from abstract to concrete.

Etymology: The term is a loanword from German konkretisieren, with roots in Latin concretus. It is widely used in Hungarian technical, scientific, and administrative language and has become a standard part of contemporary Hungarian usage.

Usage and meaning: As an attributive modifier, konkrotizált (sic) agrees with the noun in number and case (for example konkrtetizált követelmények, konkretizált adatok, konkretizált terv). In predicative use it appears with forms of the verb konkretizál, e.g., A javaslatot konkrét célokkal és mérhető adatokkal konkretizálták. The core sense is to replace vagueness with precise elements, measurements, or steps, making information more actionable and assessable. The term is common in project management, research, policy-making, and legal contexts.

Examples: A projektterv konkrecizált részletekkel gazdagodott. A dolgozatban az elméletet konkrét adatokkal konkretizálták.

Related terms: konkretizál (to concretize), konkretizáció (the act of concretizing), konkrit. Antonyms include általánosítani (to generalize) and elvont (abstract).
