hatolni

Hatolni is a Hungarian verb meaning to force one’s way through a barrier or boundary, to penetrate into space or territory, and more broadly to intrude or advance into something. It is used for both physical intrusion—such as military forces entering a zone—and figurative penetration, such as breaking through defenses, entering a market, or making inroads in a field.

In military and strategic contexts, hatolni denotes an action aimed at breaching defensive lines and moving deeper into an area. In everyday language, it can also describe overcoming obstacles or pushing into a space that is difficult to access. Metaphorically, hatolni can refer to ideas, information, or influence breaking through established limits or barriers.

The noun form hatolás refers to the act or result of penetrating or breaking through. The verb hatolni follows standard patterns of Hungarian -ni infinitives and is commonly used with prefixes or directional phrases to clarify the path or target of penetration (e.g., be hatolni into, ki hatolni to break out).

Common translations into English include to penetrate, to break through, to advance, to intrude, or to march through, depending on context. Example sentences include: A hadsereg hatolt be az ellenséges területre. (The army penetrated into enemy territory.) A vállalat hatol a piacra egy új termékkel. (The company is penetrating the market with a new product.)

In summary, hatolni covers both physical intrusion and metaphorical inroads, making it a versatile term for describing forceful entry and progressive penetration in various contexts.
