Hungarian - An

Introduction

"After studying the Hungarian language for many years, I can confidently conclude that had
Hungarian been my mother tongue, it would have been far more valuable. Just mainly
because via this extraordinary, ancient and strong language it can be probable to precisely
describe the tiniest differences along with the most secretive tremors of emotions." Such a
compliment by the Irish noble-prize winner writer, George Bernard Shaw elegantly points
out the uniqueness from the Hungarian (or as the Hungarians get in touch with it, Magyar)
language. It is actually exclusive, for that Hungarian is definitely an isolated language,
obtaining no relatives in Europe. Where are the roots of this weird and wonderful language
then?
Hungarian belongs towards the Finno-Ugric branch on the Uralic language family. Finnish
and Estonian are also members of this group. To prove their widespread origin, Estonian
philologists found a sentence which shows sings of similarities amongst these 3 languages:\
'The living fish swims under water.' Estonian: Elav kala ujub vee all. Finnish: Elv kala ui
veden alla. Hungarian: Eleven hal szik a vz alatt. Regardless of these visible hyperlinks,
Hungarians do not have an understanding of any Finnish or Estonian and vice-versa. This
then suggests that Finnish and Estonian are usually not the closest relatives of Hungarian.

Following deeper investigation, it was concluded that Hungarian is much more strongly
associated with the Mansi and Khanty languages, which originate from Siberia as well as the
Ural Mountains. Predictions are that Hungarian broke its bonds with these Ob-Ural
languages about 2500-3000 years ago when Hungary's ancestors settled down inside the
Carpathian Basin. Even prior to this, Hungarian was influenced by Iranian and Turkic because
of the ancestors' interaction with these nations in the course of their quest for any
homeland. Throughout the following centuries, due to historical consequences, it picked up
words from other languages which include from German, Italian, French or English as well.
The 152 years of Turkish rule involving 1544 and 1686 additional expanded the Hungarian
vocabulary to include Turkish words. As an example, the sentence 'I have a lot of smaller
apples in my pocket' is quite similar in these two languages:

Turkish: Cebimde cok kck elma var Hungarian: Zsebemben sok kicsi alma van.
Furthermore, Hungary's geographical position implies that it gathered several words of
Slavic origin. On the other hand, these neighbouring countries have also been influenced by
Hungarian. There is certainly proof for this in Croatian and in Serbian:
Boots- in Croatian it really is cizma whereas in Hungarian it is csizma Spade-in Serbian it is
actually asov although in Hungarian it's aso. One of the most significant English word from
Hungarian origin is 'coach' immediately after the Hungarian village of Kocs where coaches
were invented and initially utilized.
