Questions & Answers about A rezsi olyan nagy, mint a közös költség.

What does rezsi mean exactly?

Rezsi is an everyday Hungarian word for household running costs, especially utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and heating. Depending on context, it can mean:

• utility costs in general
• the utility bill
• household overhead expenses

So even if the English translation uses utilities, Hungarian usually treats rezsi as one collective thing.

Why is rezsi singular when English often says utilities?

Because rezsi is a collective noun in Hungarian. It refers to the whole category of utility expenses as a single concept.

So:

• a rezsi = the utilities / utility costs
• not normally a plural form in this meaning

This is very common in Hungarian: one singular noun can correspond to an English plural idea.
