gyorsul

Gyorsul is a Hungarian verb meaning to accelerate or to speed up. It is used intransitively to describe something that increases its speed, for example: "A vonat gyorsul." The infinitive form is gyorsulni, and in present tense the third-person singular form is typically gyorsul. The related noun gyorsulás denotes acceleration, the rate at which speed changes. A closely related prefixed form is felgyorsul, meaning to speed up or to accelerate, often implying a change toward faster motion; the noun felgyorsulás refers to such acceleration or ramp-up.

In physics and everyday language, gyorsulás is the term for the acceleration of an object. It is a vector quantity representing the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, with units of meters per second squared (m/s^2). The basic relation is a = dv/dt, where a is acceleration, v is velocity, and t is time.

Usage notes: gyorsul is commonly used to describe machines, vehicles, or processes that increase their speed, such as motors, engines, or flows of traffic. The word appears in a wide range of contexts, from technical descriptions to colloquial speech. Related forms include gyorsulás (acceleration) and felgyorsulás (ramp-up or speeding up), which expand the sense of a process moving toward higher speed.
