gyorsabbá

Gyorsabbá is a Hungarian grammatical form derived from the adjective gyors (fast). It is used to express a change of state into being faster, or to indicate the action of making something faster. The form is commonly seen in constructions with the verb válik (to become) or with causative constructions using tenni (to make).

Morphology and usage

Gyorsabbá is formed by combining the comparative stem rychors with the suffix -á, yielding a participial-like form that marks a result or purpose of becoming faster. It appears in sentences where a subject undergoes a change to a faster condition, for example: A rendszer gyorsabbá válik a frissítés hatására (The system becomes faster as a result of the update). It also occurs in the causative pattern gyorsabbá tenni, meaning “to make faster,” as in: A frissítés gyorsabbá teszi a rendszert (The update makes the system faster). In noun phrases or infinitive clauses, you can find forms like gyorsabbá tételéhez/gyorsabbá tenni, used to express the act of making something faster: A folyamat gyorsabbá tételéhez új módszerek szükségesek (New methods are needed to make the process faster).

Etymology and scope

The form combines gyors (fast) with the comparative suffix -abb and the participial suffix -á/-vé, functioning as a grammatical tool rather than an independent lexical entry. It is primarily a derivative used in predicative or infinitive contexts rather than a standalone adjective.
