tør

Tör is a term that can refer to several unrelated topics depending on language and context. There is no single, widely recognized definition of tör, and in reference works it is typically treated as a term requiring disambiguation when encountered in isolation.

In Hungarian linguistics, tör- appears as a root connected with words derived from törni, meaning to break. The form tör itself is not commonly listed as a standalone verb in standard dictionaries, but it occurs as a morphological component in related words such as törés (fracture) or törődni (to concern oneself). In other languages, sequences of letters such as tör may occur incidentally as part of longer words or proper names, and may have entirely different meanings.

As a proper name, tör can appear as a surname or as part of toponymic forms in some regions. Such uses are usually distinct from the common noun senses and are documented within local or genealogical sources rather than in general reference works.

Because of its generic form, tör typically requires contextual clarification in encyclopedic writing. When encountered, editors will disambiguate by specifying the language, the domain (linguistics, geography, personal name), and any diacritics or capitalization that distinguish one sense from another.
