leírható

Leírható is a Hungarian adjective formed from the verb írni (to write) with the prefix le-, and it denotes the ability to write down or inscribe information on a surface or medium. The term is used in both everyday language and technical contexts to describe things that can be written, recorded, or inscribed.

In technology and data storage, leírható is a common descriptor for writable media and devices. A leírható lemez refers to a medium on which a user can record data, such as CD-R, DVD-R, or Blu-ray Disc. The label covers various types of write-capable media, including both write-once formats and, in some cases, formats that can be rewritten. In computing, the concept extends to storage devices that accept user data, such as a leírható USB flash drive or external hard drive, emphasizing the possibility of adding or replacing content.

Beyond physical media, leírható can describe documents, forms, or surfaces prepared for inscription, whether by hand or by electronic entry. Figuratively, it can refer to information or data that can be recorded, documented, or retrieved in written form. The term thus encompasses both material surfaces intended for writing and broader notions of recordability or printability.

Etymology and related terms: leírható derives from írni with the prefix le-, related to the noun írás (writing). Related concepts include írás, írható, és rögzíthető (recordable), which reflect different aspects of writing and recording information.
