Szivárognak

Szivárognak is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to leak" or "to seep" in English. It describes a gradual or unintentional escape of liquid or gas from a contained space. This can occur through small openings, cracks, or porous materials.

The term "szivárognak" can be used in various contexts. For instance, it might refer to water leaking from a pipe, oil seeping from an engine, or gas escaping from a faulty seal. In a more figurative sense, it can describe the slow or stealthy disclosure of information, such as secrets or confidential data.

Examples of its usage include describing a leaky roof ("beázik a tető"), a slow leak in a tire ("lassan szivárog a levegő a gumiból"), or the unintentional release of classified documents ("titkos információk szivárognak ki"). The verb implies a slow, often unnoticed, and undesirable passage of a substance or information from its intended containment. It contrasts with a sudden burst or explosion, emphasizing a gradual and continuous process.
