kétszerese

Kétszerese is a Hungarian word that translates to "double" or "twice the amount" in English. It is commonly used in everyday language to indicate that something is twice as large, twice as many, or twice as intense as a reference point. The word is formed by combining the numeral "két" (two) with the suffix "-szerese" which denotes a multiplicative relationship.

For example, if a recipe calls for one cup of flour, and you decide to double it, you would use "kétszerese" of the flour. Similarly, if a store is having a sale where prices are halved, and you have a coupon for an additional discount, you might be getting "kétszerese" of the original discount, meaning twice the reduction.

The term can also be used in a more abstract sense. If someone is experiencing twice the amount of joy or sorrow, one might say their feeling is "kétszerese". It's a versatile word that emphasizes a doubling of quantity, intensity, or magnitude. The grammatical structure allows it to be used with various nouns and contexts, making it a fundamental part of Hungarian vocabulary for expressing multiplication by two.
