History of Hungarian
Hungarian arrived in Europe with Magyar tribes around 896 AD. It's a Uralic language surrounded by Indo-European languages, making it a linguistic island. The language developed a rich literary tradition and has contributed words like 'coach' (from Kocs, a Hungarian town) and 'sabre' to English.
Is Hungarian Hard to Learn?
Hungarian has 18 cases, vowel harmony, and an agglutinative structure where words can become extremely long. It shares almost no vocabulary with surrounding languages. However, spelling is phonetic and logical once you learn the system.
