zúzzák

Zúzzák is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Hungarian verb zúz, which means to strike with force, to pound, or to crush. The term is used for both literal physical impact and figurative intensification, such as overpowering opponents, battering a surface, or the force of weather or noise. In general, zúz implies a strong, repetitive or sustained action.

Grammatical notes: Zúzzák is used with a plural subject. Related forms include zúzom (I thrash), zúzol (you thrash), zúzzuk (we thrash), and zúzzátok (you all thrash). The noun form zúzás denotes the act or sound of pounding, while zúzó can describe something that pounds or crushes, functioning as a present participle or adjective.

Usage and nuance: The word often conveys high intensity and immediacy. It can describe physical actions, such as players striking the ball forcefully or objects being battered by impact, as well as non-literal force, such as a team delivering a relentless performance or a storm battering structures. Colloquial or rhetorical use may emphasize dominance, speed, or sheer power.

- A játékosok zúzzák a labdát a gyors edzésen.

- A rivális csapatok zúzzák egymást a döntőben.

- A vihar zúzza az ablakokat (figuratively, in contexts where singular form is used).
