kiterjedten

Kiterjedten is a Hungarian adverb meaning “in an extensive, comprehensive, or thorough manner.” It describes how an action is performed or how information is presented, emphasizing breadth and depth of coverage rather than speed or brevity.

It is used with verbs related to describing, analyzing, reporting, or discussing, to indicate that the subject is treated in a wide or detailed way. Examples: “A tanulmány kiterjedten foglalkozik a témával” (The study deals with the topic in an extensive manner), and “A beszámoló kiterjedten bemutatja az összefüggéseket” (The report presents the connections comprehensively).

Origin and morphology: the adverb is derived from the verb kiterjed, which is built from ki- (out) and terjed (to spread, extend). The suffix -en forms many Hungarian adverbs. Related forms include the adjective kiterjedt (extensive) and the noun kiterjedtség (extent, breadth).

Usage notes: kiterjedten implies thoroughness and breadth and is common in formal or academic writing. It can be substituted with synonyms such as alaposan, átfogóan, vagy részletesen depending on the precise nuance, but each variant carries slightly different stylistic or contextual shading.
