A large urban settlement.
خلفية ثقافية
In Hungary, there is a sharp distinction between Budapest and 'vidék' (the rest of the country). A 'nagy város' usually refers to Budapest or one of the five major regional centers (Debrecen, Szeged, Miskolc, Pécs, Győr). The concept of a 'big city' varies wildly. For a Hungarian, a city of 200,000 is 'nagy', but for someone from China or India, that would be a small town. Many Hungarian 'nagy városok' were destroyed during the Ottoman wars and rebuilt in the 18th and 19th centuries, giving them a distinct Baroque or Neoclassical look. The 'nagy város' is a recurring character in Hungarian 'Urbánus' literature, representing progress, sin, and intellectual freedom.
Word Order
Always put 'nagy' before 'város' when you are describing it.
The 'S' sound
Remember that 's' in Hungarian is always 'sh'. It's 'Vah-rosh', not 'Vah-ros'.
