Süllyedjen

Süllyedjen is a Hungarian verb that translates to "sink" or "submerge" in English. It describes the action of something moving downward through a liquid, typically water, until it is no longer visible or is completely covered. The verb can be used in both literal and figurative contexts.

Literally, süllyedjen can refer to objects like ships, stones, or even people disappearing beneath the surface of a body of water. For example, "The ship süllyedjen" means "The ship sank." It can also be used to describe the gradual descent of something, such as the sun setting below the horizon, which can be described as "A nap süllyedjen a horizont alá" meaning "The sun sinks below the horizon."

Figuratively, süllyedjen can denote a decline in status, fortune, or spirits. A person's mood might "süllyedjen" if they become sad or despondent. Similarly, a company's performance or a country's economy might be described as "süllyedjen" if it is experiencing a downturn. The verb implies a loss of buoyancy or upward momentum, leading to a downward trajectory. In some contexts, it can also suggest being overwhelmed or engulfed by something, such as a feeling of despair.
