Leszögezése

Leszögezése is a Hungarian word that translates to "nailing down," "pinning down," or "making definitive" in English. It refers to the act of firmly establishing or concluding something, leaving no room for doubt or further discussion. This can apply to various contexts, from literal physical actions to more abstract concepts.

In a literal sense, leszögezése could describe the physical act of hammering a nail firmly into a surface, ensuring it stays in place and does not move. This implies a sense of security and permanence.

More commonly, the term is used figuratively. It can mean to definitively state a fact or opinion, leaving no ambiguity. For example, someone might say "a tényeket leszögeztem" which means "I have nailed down the facts." This suggests that the facts have been presented clearly and are no longer open to interpretation. It can also refer to reaching a firm conclusion or decision after a period of consideration or debate. In this sense, it signifies the end of uncertainty. The word implies a finality and a strong assertion of a particular point or outcome.
