elsüllyedni

elsüllyedni is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to sink" in English. It describes the action of an object or a person descending below the surface of a liquid, typically water, due to its density being greater than that of the liquid. The verb can be used in both literal and figurative senses.

Literally, elsüllyedni refers to objects like ships, boats, or debris going down into a body of water. For example, a damaged ship might elsüllyedni. It can also describe a person falling into water and sinking. The process of sinking is generally a one-way event, leading to submersion.

Figuratively, elsüllyedni can denote a decline in status, reputation, or emotional state. A company might face bankruptcy and elsüllyedni into financial ruin. Similarly, a person experiencing severe depression might feel like their spirits are elsüllyedni. The concept of sinking can also be applied to abstract ideas or plans that fail to materialize or are abandoned, effectively "sinking" without success. The verb's versatility allows it to describe a range of downward movements, both physical and metaphorical.
