kárpótolni

Kárpótolni is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to compensate," "to indemnify," or "to make amends" in English. It refers to the act of providing something to redress a loss, damage, or injury. This compensation can take various forms, including financial payment, replacement of goods, or other actions intended to restore a state of equilibrium or fairness.

The concept of kárpótolni is applicable in legal contexts, where it signifies legal compensation for harm suffered. It can also be used in everyday situations, such as when someone apologizes and offers to replace a broken item or otherwise make up for an inconvenience caused. The core idea is to rectify a negative situation and restore balance after a loss or wrongdoing has occurred. The specific nature of the compensation depends heavily on the context of the loss or damage.
