Szárít is a Hungarian verb that means "to dry," commonly used to describe the process of removing moisture from a substance, such as food, cloth, or a wound. It is derived from the noun szár, which refers to "dry" or "dryness," and the suffix -ít, which forms an action verb. The verb is regularly conjugated in Hungarian, with the present tense form "szárít" used for the third person singular (he/she/it dries). In the past tense, it becomes "szárított," and the future tense uses "szárítani fog." The infinitive form is "szárítani."

Szárít is used in a variety of contexts, from culinary practices ("A szárítás segít megőrizni a zöldségeket") to medical procedures ("A sérülés szárítja a sebzést természetes módon") and everyday tasks such as sun‑drying laundry or drying dishes. The verb can be combined with devices, creating compound nouns such as "szárító" (dryer) or "szárítószerek" (drying agents, e.g., silica gel). In idiomatic speech, the expression "szárítás nélkül" (without drying) may indicate moisture or dampness.

In Hungarian literature and media, the act of drying is often symbolically linked to purification or preservation, reflecting a cultural emphasis on maintaining food and textiles for longevity. Thus, szárít occupies both practical and metaphorical places in the language.
