egyesével

egyesével is a Hungarian adverb meaning "one by one," "individually," or "in single units." It denotes manner or distribution and is commonly used to describe actions performed sequentially or items processed one at a time.

The word is derived from the numeral egy ("one") with suffixes that create an adverbial expression indicating grouping or increment; similar forms include kettesével ("in pairs") and hármasával ("in threes"). Pronunciation is approximately /ˈɛɟɛʃeːvɛl/.

In grammar, egyesével functions as an adverb of manner, modifying verbs to specify how an action proceeds. Typical uses include narrative descriptions, instructions, and factual statements: for example, "A vendégek egyesével léptek be" ("The guests entered one by one") or "A tojásokat egyesével tették a dobozba" ("They put the eggs into the box individually"). It can apply to people, objects, or abstract items being handled, counted, or considered separately.

The term is common in both spoken and written Hungarian and carries a neutral register. Its equivalents in other languages include English "one by one" or "individually," German "einer nach dem anderen," and French "un par un."
