Rejtett

Rejtett is a Hungarian adjective meaning hidden or concealed. It is formed from the verb rejt, to hide, with the adjectival suffix -ett. The term describes something not immediately visible, known, or accessible and often implies that discovery or revelation may be required.

In everyday use, rejtett can refer to physical concealment as well as more abstract forms of concealment. Examples include a rejtett zug (hidden corner), rejtett információ (hidden information), or rejtett képesség (hidden talent). The word is productive in compound expressions and is frequently found in both spoken and written Hungarian.

In literature, media, and discourse, rejtett is commonly used to convey mystery, secrecy, or things that lie beyond ordinary perception. It can appear in titles, descriptions, and character development to signal the existence of unseen forces, motivations, or realities that are not immediately apparent.

Nuances distinguish rejtett from related terms. Titkos usually denotes deliberate secrecy or confidentiality, while elfedett means physically or visually obscured. Rejtett emphasizes an absence from perception or knowledge that may be neutral or accidental, rather than a deliberate act. The word thus functions as a versatile descriptor for things that are concealed, undisclosed, or awaiting revelation.
