krónikusan

krónikusan is a Hungarian adverb. It translates to "chronically" in English. It is used to describe a condition, state, or behavior that is long-lasting, persistent, or habitual. The term often implies a negative or problematic aspect, suggesting something that is difficult to resolve or overcome.

For instance, one might say someone is "krónikusan késő" which means they are chronically late. This implies that being late is not an isolated incident but a persistent pattern of behavior. Similarly, a medical condition described as "krónikusan beteg" would mean the person has a long-term or chronic illness. The adverb is derived from the Hungarian word "krónika," which means "chronicle" or "annals," suggesting a record of events over time. Therefore, "krónikusan" emphasizes the temporal dimension of duration and continuity. It is a common and useful word in everyday Hungarian communication, particularly when discussing health, habits, or recurring issues.
