százezerszeres

Százezerszeres is a Hungarian adjective meaning hundred-thousandfold or a hundred thousand times as much. It is used to express a very large multiplicative factor in contexts such as mathematics, statistics, economics, and rhetorical writing.

Formation and form: The word is built from the numeral százezer (one hundred thousand) combined with the suffix -szeres, which denotes a multiple or fold. The resulting form is written as a single word: százezerszeres.

Usage: Százezerszeres refers to a multiplier of 100,000. It is typically found in formal or emphatic statements, sometimes in scientific or journalistic texts to convey large-scale growth or difference. Examples include: "A bevétel százezerszeresére nőtt az elmúlt évtizedben." This conveys that revenue has increased by a factor of 100,000. The expression is often used rhetorically or hyperbolically rather than as a precise technical term.

Related forms and notes: Other multiplicative forms include tízezerszeres (ten-thousandfold) and milliószoros (millionfold). In Hungarian, these constructions are used to describe scale or intensity of change, but in everyday language they can sound exaggerated. Százezerszeres is more common in written or formal discourse when a dramatic scale is desired, rather than in ordinary conversation.
