Suggesting the beginning of a journey or task.
Contexto cultural
The 'Long Goodbye' (ajtóban beszélgetés) means that 'Induljunk!' is often said multiple times before any actual movement occurs. The phrase 'Induljon a banzáj' is a cultural touchstone from the late 80s, representing a shift toward electronic/new wave music and a call for social change. In farming communities, 'indulás' was tied to the sun. 'Hajnali indulás' (dawn departure) is a common concept for starting work in the fields. With the frequent BKK (public transport) schedule, 'Induljunk!' is often shouted when a tram is spotted approaching the stop.
Add 'el' for naturalness
Saying 'Induljunk el!' sounds slightly more complete and natural to native ears than just 'Induljunk!'.
Don't use for 'starting' food
If you want to start eating, use 'Együnk' (Let's eat), never 'Induljunk'.
