gyanúsítani

Gyanúsítani is a Hungarian verb that translates to suspect, accuse, or incriminate in English. It describes the act of believing someone is guilty of a crime or wrongdoing, or formally charging them with such an offense. The verb can be used in various contexts, from everyday suspicions about someone's behavior to legal proceedings where formal accusations are made.

The root of the word, "gyanú," means suspicion. Therefore, "gyanúsítani" literally means to cause suspicion or to make someone suspicious. In legal contexts, the act of "gyanúsítás" is a formal step in a criminal investigation, indicating that there are sufficient grounds to believe a person has committed a crime. This can lead to further investigation, arrest, or indictment.

Beyond legal implications, "gyanúsítani" can also be used in a more general sense to imply doubt or mistrust. For instance, one might suspect someone of lying or being untrustworthy, using the verb to express this feeling. The nuance of the word often depends on the context in which it is used, ranging from a mild hunch to a serious allegation.
