növekményes

Növekményes is a Hungarian term used as an adjective to describe something that grows by increments. In practice, it is used in technical contexts to refer to processes, quantities or models that increase in discrete steps rather than continuously. The stem növekmény means an increment or addition, and the suffix -es forms an adjective meaning “characterized by” or “having.” The word thus denotes a property of growth through added amounts.

Usage: In economics and business, növekményes may describe cost, revenue, or investment patterns that rise by incremental amounts, for example növekményes költség (incremental cost). In mathematics or computer science, it can describe algorithms, sequences, or processes where each step adds a fixed or variable increment to the previous value, yielding a piecewise or stepwise growth.

Comparison: It is distinct from növekvő (increasing), which simply indicates growth, and from növekmény as a noun meaning “increment.” The term is relatively formal and not as common in everyday language.
