kiégetik

Kiégetik is a Hungarian verb form derived from kiégetni, meaning to burn out, burn off, or to fire (in a kiln). The word is most commonly encountered as a third-person plural present tense form, and it can also appear in passive constructions. The prefix ki- adds a sense of outward completion or removal, so kiégetik can describe something being burned away or thoroughly fired.

Etymology and form: ki- is a common prefix in Hungarian that indicates outward movement or completion, and éget means to burn. When combined, kiégetni refers to burning something through to completion. Kiégetik, as a conjugated form, is used when the subject performs the action (active) or when describing a process involving multiple objects.

Usage: The term is frequent in crafts, manufacturing, and material processes where firing or baking is involved. In ceramics and pottery, kiégetik a kerámiát translates to “the ceramics are fired in the kiln” or “they fire the ceramics.” The same construction can apply more generally to any material being heated to achieve a complete burn or hardening.

Examples:

- A fazekas kiégeti a kerámiát a kemencében. (The potter fires the ceramics in the kiln.)

- A termékeket kiégetik a kemencében, hogy szilárd legyenek. (The products are fired in the kiln to become solid.)

Related terms: kiégetés (the firing/burning process), égetés (burning/firing or burning in a more general sense), égés (combustion or burning as a chemical process).

Notes: Kiégetik is a standard Hungarian verb form and appears in technical, industrial, and everyday contexts where burning or firing is involved.
