Túlmutathat

Túlmutathat is a Hungarian verb that translates to "can exceed," "can surpass," or "can outgrow" in English. It is formed from the verb "túlmutat" (to exceed, to surpass) and the conditional suffix "-hat/-het," which indicates possibility or potential. The prefix "túl-" signifies "over" or "beyond." Therefore, "túlmutathat" conveys the idea that something has the capacity or ability to go beyond a certain limit, standard, or expectation.

This verb is often used in contexts discussing performance, growth, or limitations. For instance, one might say that a student's potential is such that they "túlmutathat" their current academic achievements, meaning they have the capability to achieve more. Similarly, a company's innovative product might be described as having the ability to "túlmutathat" the market's current offerings. The phrase emphasizes a future possibility rather than a definite outcome. It suggests that a current state or level is not necessarily a final boundary, and that further development or achievement is attainable. The specific nuance can depend on the context in which it is used, but the core meaning remains the potential for surpassing.
