Suttogó

Suttogó is a Hungarian term that functions as both a noun and an adjective. As a noun, it can denote a person who speaks in a whisper or a person characterized by a soft, hushed voice; in some contexts it also refers to a whisperer or someone who communicates in whispers. As an adjective, suttogó describes things related to whispering or spoken in a whisper, such as a suttogó hang or suttogó beszéd.

Etymology and formation: the word is built from the verb suttogni, meaning to whisper, with the suffix -ó, which forms agentive or attributive derivatives. Thus both the act of whispering and the person performing it can be described as suttogó.

Usage and nuance: suttogó is used in everyday language to convey softness or secrecy in voice or manner. It appears in literature and poetry to evoke intimacy, secrecy, or a subdued atmosphere. In common speech, it can describe a person who tends to speak quietly or a scene where whispering is prominent, for example in a quiet room or during a confidential conversation.

Related terms: suttogás means whispering or a whisper, and suttogó hang refers to a whispering sound. The word can appear in fictional or descriptive contexts and may also serve as a descriptive epithet or a stylistic label.
