Mélyebbre

Mélyebbre is a Hungarian adverb meaning “more deeply” or “deeper.” It is used to indicate an increase in depth, either literally, as when describing physical depth, or figuratively, such as in analyses, emotions, or narratives. The form is closely related to the adjective mély (deep) and to other adverbial degrees in Hungarian.

Grammatically, mélyebbre is typically contrasted with mélyebben, which means “more deeply” in a manner sense. Mélyebbre, however, is commonly used with verbs of motion or direction to signal movement toward a deeper position or level. This directional value is often found in contexts such as exploring, digging, or delving into a topic. The basic, non-directional degree form is mélyebben for manner, while mélyebbre emphasizes endpoint or direction.

Usage examples:

- A búvár mélyebbre süllyedt a tengerben. (The diver sank deeper into the sea.)

- A történet mélyebbre visz bennünket a karakterek motivációi felé. (The story takes us deeper into the motivations of the characters.)

- A kutatás mélyebbre hatolt a témába. (The research penetrated deeper into the topic.)

See also: mély, mélység, mélyítés.

Mélyebbre is a word that can appear in literary or journalistic prose to convey increased depth of thought, sensation, or inquiry, maintaining a neutral tone appropriate for reference works.
