közmalagútban

Közmalagútban is a Hungarian term that translates literally to "in a common well." However, its meaning is not as literal as the words might suggest. It is primarily used metaphorically to describe a situation where individuals or a group are stuck in a shared predicament or difficulty, often a disadvantageous or unpleasant circumstance. The "common" aspect implies that the problem affects everyone involved equally, and the "well" suggests a sense of being trapped or unable to easily escape.

This phrase can be applied to various scenarios. For example, a business facing a sudden economic downturn might find itself in közmalagútban if all its employees are at risk of losing their jobs. Similarly, a political party struggling with internal dissent and low public approval could be described as being in közmalagútban. The core idea is a collective struggle where the solution or escape requires a unified effort or a change in the external circumstances affecting all parties. It highlights a shared vulnerability and the lack of individual solutions.
