morzsálódik

Morzsálódik is a Hungarian verb that describes the process of breaking into small crumbs or fragments. It signifies a gradual disintegration, where something loses its structural integrity and separates into numerous tiny pieces. This can apply to a variety of substances, both tangible and abstract.

For instance, solid food items like bread or cake might morzsálódik when handled roughly or left out to dry. In a more figurative sense, plans, arguments, or even relationships can be described as morzsálódik if they are weakening or falling apart piece by piece. The verb conveys a sense of slow decay or dissolution. It suggests that the object or concept is not breaking suddenly but rather yielding to a persistent, often internal, force that causes it to fragment. The resulting state is one of being crumbled or reduced to fragments.
