áruk

áruk is a Hungarian noun meaning goods or merchandise. It is the plural form of áru, which denotes tangible items that are bought and sold. The term is widely used in commerce, logistics, retail, and statistics to refer to physical commodities exchanged in markets, as distinct from services.

In everyday language, áruk can refer to the inventory held by a business, and it features in phrases such as árukészlet (goods inventory) or the import and export of áruk. The scope can include consumer goods, industrial materials, raw materials, and packaged items, but it generally excludes intangible offerings like services.

In business and economic contexts, áruk is used when discussing pricing, delivery, and contractual terms related to physical commodities. It also appears in trade statistics and regulatory language to classify and measure the flow and value of goods in production, trade, and domestic consumption.

The word is used across various registers, from formal business communication to consumer discourse. Related terms include áru (singular, a single item of merchandise), árucikk (merchandise item), and árukészlet (inventory). The meaning adapts to context but retains the core sense of exchangeable physical goods. In translation, áruk is typically rendered as "goods" or "merchandise" in English.
