félkövér

== Hungarian == === Etymology === From fél (“half”) +‎ kövér (“fat”), calque of German halbfett (“semibold”), from halb (“half”) + fett (“fat, bold”). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): [ˈfeːlkøveːr] Hyphenation: fél‧kö‧vér Rhymes: -eːr === Adjective === félkövér (not comparable) (typography) bold (having thicker strokes than the ordinary form of the typeface) (typography) semibold (thicker than the regular weight, but not as thick as the bold) ==== Usage notes ==== The word félkövér can mean different weights of a font depending on context. In desktop publishing, it often refers to the semibold weight of a large type family that also has a bold weight (kövér). However, the localized Hungarian versions of all leading word processors use félkövér as a mistranslation of “bold”, that is, the only available boldface in such programs, or the computer-generated fake bold that they offer. Since word processors are nowadays ubiquitous, the incorrect meaning is much more prevalent than the literal translation. ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== === References === === Further reading === félkövér in Géza Bárczi, László Országh, et al., editors, A magyar nyelv értelmező szótára [The Explanatory Dictionary of the Hungarian Language] (ÉrtSz.), Budapest: Akadémiai Kiadó, 1959–1962.
