szarítás

Szarítás is a Hungarian term that can refer to several different actions, primarily related to excrement or defecation. In its most literal sense, it is the act of passing feces. This usage is generally considered vulgar or crude.

Beyond the direct meaning of defecation, "szarítás" can also be used figuratively in Hungarian to describe a situation that is going poorly, is in a state of disarray, or is otherwise considered a mess. For example, someone might say that a project is "szarásban" (literally "in defecation") to indicate that it is failing or in serious trouble. This figurative use carries a strong negative connotation.

The word is derived from the Hungarian root "szar," meaning excrement or dung. Its colloquial and often offensive nature means it is typically avoided in formal settings and polite conversation. The specific context will determine whether the literal or figurative meaning is intended, though both are inherently negative and crude. The term's intensity reflects a strong emotional reaction to either the physical act or a perceived undesirable situation.
