kiárasztja

Kiárasztja is a Hungarian verb form meaning to cause something to overflow or to flood out. It is the present tense, third-person singular (indicative) form of kiárasztani, a transitive verb built with the prefix ki- and the root árasztani (to flood). The prefix ki- often signals outward movement or completion, giving kiárasztani the sense of making something overflow beyond its confines.

Usage in Hungarian ranges from hydrological descriptions to figurative, crowd- or information-flows. In a literal sense, kiárasztja describes water exceeding its banks or a container, for example: A folyó kiárasztja a partokat after heavy rains. In metaphorical contexts, it can describe an overwhelming influx of something into a space, such as information, goods, or people, though more common phrasing may use related terms like megáraszt or kiárad depending on the specific nuance.
