átitatódni

"átitatódni" is a Hungarian verb that translates to "to be saturated," "to be imbued," or "to be soaked through" in English. It describes a state where something has absorbed a liquid or other substance to its fullest capacity, to the point where no more can be absorbed. This can refer to physical saturation, such as clothing being soaked with rain, or a more metaphorical saturation, like a person being imbued with a certain emotion or idea.

The verb is derived from the root "itat," meaning "to water," "to give drink," or "to soak." The prefix "át-" intensifies the action, indicating a complete or thorough process. Therefore, "átitatódni" emphasizes the completeness of the absorption.

In a literal sense, one might say that a sponge átitatódik vízzel (is saturated with water) when it can no longer hold any more. In a figurative sense, a room might átitatódni a música (be imbued with music), meaning the music fills the entire space and is deeply felt. Similarly, a person might átitatódni a reménnyel (be filled with hope), indicating that hope has permeated their entire being. The concept can also be applied to abstract elements, such as an argument being átitatódott a bizonyítékokkal (saturated with evidence). The passive suffix "-ódni" indicates that the subject undergoes this process, rather than actively performing it.
