A glass containing no liquid.
خلفية ثقافية
It is considered polite to refill a guest's glass before it is completely empty. An 'üres pohár' is a sign that the host should be more attentive. In rural areas, a glass is often turned upside down on the table to signal that the person is finished drinking and does not want any more refills. When tasting wine, an 'üres pohár' is carefully inspected for 'legs' or 'tears' (templomablak), which indicate the alcohol content and quality. The 'half-empty' vs 'half-full' glass metaphor is a universal symbol for pessimism vs optimism, widely used in Hungarian media.
