kúszási

Kúszási is a Hungarian verb that translates to "crawling" in English. It describes the act of moving on one's hands and knees or by dragging the body along the ground. This form of locomotion is commonly associated with infants as they develop their motor skills, progressing from rolling to crawling before they can walk. In adults, crawling can be used as a means of traversing confined spaces or as a physical exercise.

The act of crawling involves coordinated movements of the limbs to propel the body forward. Typically, this involves alternating the movement of opposite limbs, such as the right hand and left knee, followed by the left hand and right knee. The speed and efficiency of crawling can vary greatly depending on the individual and the surface being traversed.

Beyond its literal meaning, "kúszási" can also be used metaphorically to describe slow, gradual progress or development. For instance, one might say that a project is "kúszás" if it is progressing very slowly. Similarly, a plant might be described as "kúszás" if it is growing along the ground or up a surface. The term emphasizes a slow, deliberate, and often low-to-the-ground movement.
