Lazább

Lazább is a Hungarian adjective formed from the root laza with the comparative suffix -bb. It denotes a greater degree of relaxation, ease, or casualness relative to another subject. The term can describe a person’s attitude, a social environment, rules or procedures, or a general atmosphere.

Usage and nuance: Lazább conveys that something is less strict, more informal, or less tense than usual. It is common in everyday language to speak about people, workplaces, dress codes, or policies being laza or lazább. In formal writing, more precise expressions such as kevésbé szigorú, informálisabb, vagy lazább jellegű may be preferred. The sense is always relative, depending on what it is compared to.

Morphology and related terms: Lazább is the standard comparative form of laza. Related words include lazán (loosely, casually) and lazaabb is not used; instead, one would say lazább vagy kevésbé formális. The term is often contrasted with szigorú (strict) or formális (formal).

Examples: Az irodában lazább a légkör most, mint tavaly. A nyári időszakban lazábbak a szabályok. Ez a stílus lazább, informálisabb, mint amit megszoktunk.
