Hungarian[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Possibly szeg +‎ -ődik (verb-forming suffix), though it is uncertain, as the derivation may have taken place earlier than the semantic change of the supposed base verb ’to break > to bend, curve; to change direction > to turn > to join someone’.[1]

Pronunciation[edit]

  • IPA(key): [ˈsɛɡøːdik]
  • Hyphenation: sze‧gő‧dik
  • Rhymes: -øːdik
