gyarapodik

Gyarapodik is a Hungarian intransitive verb meaning to increase, grow, or prosper, especially in wealth, resources, population, or knowledge. It describes a process of becoming larger or more developed over time and is commonly used for phenomena that accumulate or improve. The related noun gyarapodás refers to growth or progression, while gyarapodó is the participle form describing something that is increasing.

The verb is conjugated like other -odik verbs. In the present tense: gyarapodom, gyarapodsz, gyarapodik, gyarapodunk, gyarapodtok, gyarapodnak. The past tense forms include gyarapodtam, gyarapodtál, gyarapodott, gyarapodtunk, gyarapodtatok, gyarapodtak. The future is typically formed with the auxiliary fog: fog gyarapodni. Gyarapodik is intransitive and is usually used without a direct object.

Usage notes: gyarapodik can describe growth in various domains, such as economy, population, reserves, or knowledge. It is common in economic, demographic, and sociological contexts. It often appears with adverbs or phrases indicating gradual or ongoing change, such as "folyamatosan gyarapodik" (is continuously increasing) or "gyarapodó költségvetés" (a growing budget).

Related terms include gyarapít, a transitive verb meaning to increase or enrich something, and gyarapodás, the noun for growth or increase. While gyarapodik emphasizes the subject’s own growth, gyarapít focuses on adding to something else, and both share the general sense of becoming larger or better.
