megfeszített

Megfeszített is a Hungarian term that translates to "stretched out" or "tightened." It is most commonly used in a physical context to describe a body part or an object that is under tension. For example, a person might say their muscles are megfeszített after a strenuous workout, meaning they are tight and sore. Similarly, a rope or string could be described as megfeszített if it is pulled taut.

Beyond its literal meaning, megfeszített can also be used metaphorically to describe a state of mental or emotional tension. Someone experiencing a lot of stress or anxiety might feel megfeszített, indicating they are feeling overwhelmed and on edge. This can also refer to a situation that is fraught with suspense or conflict, where the outcome is uncertain and the atmosphere is charged with anticipation.

In art and literature, the term can be employed to evoke a sense of drama or intensity. A scene described as megfeszített might be one filled with heightened emotions or a crucial turning point. The feeling of being megfeszített can also relate to a sense of anticipation, where something is about to happen, creating a palpable tension. The word captures a sense of being drawn to a limit, whether physically, emotionally, or situationally.
