It is used in a variety of domains, including mathematics, biology, linguistics, and education. The noun forms used with this verb include differenciálás (differentiation) and sejtdifferenciálódás (cell differentiation). The term derives from Latin differentia, via Hungarian phonology and the -álni suffix.
