ködös

Ködös is a Hungarian adjective meaning foggy or misty. It is used to describe weather conditions characterized by the presence of fog or low-lying clouds that reduce visibility. The term is common in everyday speech as well as weather reporting, and it can also convey mood in descriptive writing.

The word derives from the Hungarian noun köd, meaning fog, with the suffix -ös forming adjectives that indicate a characteristic. Thus ködös literally conveys being fogged or covered in fog.

In practical usage, ködös appears in phrases such as ködös reggel (foggy morning) and ködös táj (fog-bound landscape). It can describe both persistent fog and light mist, and it is frequently used to evoke atmosphere beyond strict meteorological reporting.

In meteorological contexts, ködös conditions reduce visibility and are commonly associated with calm, clear nights followed by moisture in the air. The term may appear in weather forecasts, news reports, and literary or media text to indicate foggy conditions or to set a particular mood.
