The Lagrangian description of fluid flow in relativistic cosmology is extended to the case of flow accelerated by pressure. In the description, the entropy and the vorticity are obtained exactly for the barotropic equation of state. In order to determine the metric, the Einstein equation is solved perturbatively, when metric fluctuations are small but entropy inhomogeneities are large. Thus, the present formalism is applicable to the case when the inhomogeneities are small in the large scale but locally nonlinear.
