The language spoken in Hungary.
خلفية ثقافية
Hungarians celebrate the 'Day of the Hungarian Language' on November 13th. It commemorates the day in 1844 when Hungarian became the official language of the state. For the Hungarian minority in Transylvania, the 'magyar nyelv' is a vital link to their heritage and a primary tool for community preservation. In Hungarian schools, the subject 'Magyar nyelv és irodalom' is often simply called 'Magyar'. It is the most important subject in the national curriculum. The 'magyar nyelv' is often called an 'orphan' or 'island' language because it has no close relatives in Europe, which has shaped the Hungarian psyche.
