többforrású

Többforrású is a Hungarian adjective meaning "having several sources" or "drawn from multiple sources." It is used to describe information, data, systems, or evidence that originate from more than one source. The term is formed from the words töb(b) (many), forrás (source), and the suffix -ú, which creates an attributive form.

In usage, többforrású is applied in contexts where cross-verification or integration of multiple inputs is implied. It can refer to reports, data sets, databases, analyses, or information streams that compile material from several origins. The word conveys a sense of reliability through corroboration and synthesis, though it may also require reconciliation of differing details across sources.

Common phrases include többforrású adatbázis (multi-source database), többforrású információ (multi-sourced information), többforrású híradás vagy többforrású tudósítás (multi-sourced reporting), and többforrású elemzés (multi-source analysis). In journalism, science, and information technology, the term highlights a methodological approach that aggregates input from diverse origins to form a more comprehensive or robust result.

Etymologically, the term combines töb(b) with forrás and the adjectival suffix -ú, reflecting Hungarian word-formation patterns for describing characteristics. It is typically written as egybe (többforrású), though in some stylizations or compounds it may appear in hyphenated forms in certain stylistic guides.
