átvágás

Átvágás is a Hungarian term that can be translated to "cutting through" or "severance." It carries a variety of meanings depending on the context. In a literal sense, it refers to the physical act of cutting something in two, such as severing a rope or cutting through a material. This can be done with a tool like a knife, scissors, or saw.

Beyond the literal, átvágás often signifies a decisive action or a breaking point. It can describe the act of ending a relationship, making a clear break from a past situation, or making a firm decision. For instance, someone might speak of "átvágás" their ties to a former employer, meaning they have definitively left and severed that connection.

The term can also be used metaphorically to describe overcoming an obstacle or making progress through a difficult situation. Imagine "cutting through" a dense forest; the átvágás represents the successful navigation and clearing of the path. In a more abstract sense, it can imply a swift and effective solution to a problem. The emphasis is on the act of making a clear, often irreversible, division or breakthrough.
