egyesül

Egyesül is a Hungarian verb meaning to unite, merge, or come together to form a single entity. It is used for processes in which two or more parties join to create one unit, such as political unions, corporate mergers, or social or regional consolidation. The action is typically intransitive, describing the subject's act of uniting with others. The corresponding noun is egyesülés, used for the event or process of unification; and the related transitive verb egyesít means to unite or consolidate something.

The word is built from the root egyes- (“one”) with a suffix pattern common to verbs denoting coming together. In contexts of international politics, you may encounter statements like "országok egyesülnek" (“the countries unite”). In business, "két vállalat egyesül" (“two companies merge”). The adjective form egyesült appears in established phrases such as Egyesült Államok (the United States).

Common usage notes: egyesül can describe voluntary unification (merger) and may imply a goal of forming a stronger, unified entity. It contrasts with egyesít, which is the transitive action of uniting something in a direct sense.
