esések

Esések is a Hungarian noun formed from esés, meaning a fall or a decline. The plural esések is used to refer to multiple instances of a decrease, drop, or downward movement, across various fields and everyday language. It covers both concrete events (a person’s fall) and abstract measurements (price levels, temperatures, indicators).

In economics and finance, esések describes declines in value or performance, such as részvényárak esése (the fall of stock prices) or az értékek esése (the decrease of values). It can also denote downward trends in data, sales, or economic indicators over a period.

In physical and natural contexts, esés commonly refers to a drop in a measured quantity, for example a hőmérséklet esése (temperature drop) or a csökkenő mennyiség in a dataset. It is not typically used to describe rain itself; rain is usually referred to as eső or csapadék. In everyday language, esés can also mean a fall of a person or object, as in egy esést szenvedett (he/she suffered a fall).

Etymologically, esés derives from the verb esik, which means to fall or to rain, and the noun form esés is used across contexts to denote the act or result of falling or decreasing. See also a lefelé irányuló mozgás, a visszaesés (decline), and related terms in Hungarian.
