elárasztása

Elárasztása is a Hungarian term that translates to "flooding" or "overwhelming." It can be used in various contexts, referring to both literal and metaphorical situations.

Literally, elárasztása describes the physical inundation of an area by water, such as a river overflowing its banks or a dam breaking. This can lead to significant damage to property, infrastructure, and the environment, and often necessitates evacuation and rescue efforts. Natural disasters like floods are often described using this term.

Metaphorically, elárasztása can describe a situation where something is present in excessive quantities, overwhelming a person or system. This could be an influx of information, a surge of emotions, or a large number of people arriving at a location. For example, a popular tourist destination might experience "elárasztása" during peak season, meaning it becomes overwhelmed with visitors. Similarly, someone feeling stressed might describe their mind as being "elárasztott" by worries. The concept implies a loss of control or capacity to manage the overwhelming element.
