Összeír

Összeér is a Hungarian verb that denotes coming into contact or meeting at a point. It is commonly used to describe two lines, paths, or edges that touch or converge, such as roads, railway tracks, or boundaries. The nuance can also extend to non-physical convergence, for example ideas, positions, or interests that meet or align.

Etymology and construction: the prefix össze- meaning together is combined with ér, a verb form related to reaching or touching. The combination conveys the sense of reaching toward one another or reaching the same point. Összeér is typically used with subjects that are capable of meeting, and it often appears intransitively, for example with a location or point where the convergence occurs.

Common uses and examples:

- A két út összeér a téren. (The two roads meet at the square.)

- A vasútvonalak összeérnek a központi pályaudvarnál. (The rail lines converge at the central station.)

- A nézetek összesúgnak/összeérnek a vitában. (The viewpoints converge in the debate.)

- Az összeérés lokális geometriát ír le, ahol a vonalak találkoznak egy pontban.

Noun form is összeérés, used to refer to the act or instance of meeting at a point or the point where convergence occurs. Összeér is related to other compounds with ér, and its exact meaning depends on context, ranging from physical contact to metaphorical convergence.
