röptetni

Röptetni is a Hungarian verb that means to cause someone to belch or to belch oneself. It describes the release of swallowed air from the stomach through the mouth. The act is commonly discussed in the contexts of infant care, after meals, and in medical or educational settings where the disposal of trapped gas is relevant.

Usage: In infant care, röptetés is part of routine feeding after which the caregiver gently pats or rubs the baby’s back to help bring up swallowed air. In adults or in literature, the verb can describe a belching event, sometimes in humor or casual speech. The noun röptetés refers to the act itself; the infinitive form is röptetni, and standard Hungarian conjugation applies to its other forms.

Notes: The term is recognized in standard Hungarian dictionaries and is a specialized but familiar expression. In everyday casual speech, speakers may opt for more common or colloquial words for belching, depending on regional variation and register.
