PREFACE.

J'HE publication of Hungarian Self-Taucjht marks the inclusion
of a new group of languages in the " Self- Taught Series,"
Hungarian being akin to the languages of the Finns, Lapps,
and certain tribes in Russia and Siberia, whilst standing quite
apart from the Latin, German, Scandinavian and other groups.

The main purpose of this manual is to facilitate the speedy
acquisition of a working and practical knowledge of Hungarian,
as far as possible without the usual long and tedious operation
of mastering the Grammar, which many persons find it imprac-
ticable or distasteful to undertake, to whom, nevertheless, some
acquaintance with the spoken tongue is necessary, or at least
advantageous, for the purposes of commerce or of travel and
pleasure.

The book chiefly consists, therefore, of alargenumber of compre-
hensive Vocabularies, and collections of idiomatic Conversational
Fhiases and Sentences, such as are required for every-day use,
carefully selected and classified according to subject. The
words in each vocabulary are placed in alphabetical order, and
there are cross-references between the vocabularies and the
corresponding groups of sentences.

The matter is arranged in three columns, viz., first the
English words or sentences, then the Hungarian translation,
and third, the phonetic pronunciation of the Hungarian words.
In the conversations the aim has been to give the colloquial
equivalent in Hungarian, rather than the literal translation of
the English. The pronunciation given in the third column is
in accordance with Marlborough's system of phonetics. This
system is the outcome of long experience, and is of so simple a
nature that it enables anyone who knows English, however
strange to the Hungarian language, to read off the words at a
glance, and easUy make himself understood amongst Hungarians,
with the minimum of trouble in mastering the system.

The first section of the book, deahng with the Alphabet and
pronunciation, provides the scheme of nhonetics adopted in thiy

volume, and in the introductory paragraphs thereto the prin-
ciples upon which the scheme is based are explained, and
particular attention is drawn to the phonetic signs employed
to represent the few sounds which are more or less unfamiliar
to the English ear.

For the benefit of students and others who desire to become
more closely acquainted with Hungarian, a very full outline of
the Grammar is added, followed by a section on Etymology, and
thus the way is opened to the thorough study and mastery of
the language.

To commercial men, tourists, travellers, students, and aU who
desire to enter into communication with the Hungarians, this
work will prove a useful and valuable handbook of the language.
Students wiU, moreover, find that the book forms an easy
introduction to a language which has a quaint beauty of its
own, and possesses a remarkable literature, rich especially in
heroic poetry.

HUNGARIAN SELF-TAUGHT.

T^e Alphabet, with Phonetic Pronunciation.

The principle on which Marlborough's system of phonetics is
based may be stated briefly as " One sign, one sound," and
conversely " One sound, one sign."

The student should constantly bear this principle in mind,
and pronounce each of the phonetics employed in this volume
always in the same manner.

Attention is particularly drawn, therefore, to the phonetic use
of a, e, i, and o, which, in the third column throughout the
Vocabularies and Conversations, represent the short vowel
sounds in at, et, it, ot, respectively. Other phonetic signs to be
noted are fir and er (short and long respectively), 66, eu, iu,
iy, and zh.

The Hungarian language has the following single letters : —

• See footnote on preceding page, f Pronounce gr and er as er in over
and herb respectively, without sounding the r. J Form the lips as for
whistling and pronounce eu as one sound. § Cz is now very largely
replaced by 0, the pronunciation being the same. This spelling is adopted
throughout this book.

PEELIMINAEY NOTES.

Pronunciation. — The Hungarian language requires clear
and distinct articulation ; two consonants (whether single or
double), coming together, must each be distinctly sounded. t

If ,;■ follows ny, ty, it is pronounced as if the « or t were
doubled, nny, tty, as anyja (on-nyo) his mother, atyja (ot-tyo)
his father.

When a consonant is doubled it must be pronounced doubly,
and a slight stress must be laid on the first syllable ; e.g. mlla,
fork ; szappan, soap.

One must be careful to make a difference in pronouncing long
and short vowels, for often the meaning of a word depends on
the pronunciation of a or a, of o or d, o, o, of ii or u ; as hat
(hot), six, hat (haht), back ; kor (korr), age, kdr (kohr), illness.

Tonic Accent. — In Hungarian each word has as many
syllables as it contains vowels ; as Z«awyai^=le-ahn-yo-i-eh.
The spoken or tonic accent is always on the first syllable,

be it the root or prefix, long or short.

Accents. — There are the following accents: ', ", ", They
are used to indicate the varying pronunciation of certain vowels,
as shown in the Alphabet.

* Ty is the siiarp articulation of gy. These two sounds are the most
iifUcult ; they are in the same relation to each other as the English
syllables " du " and '• tu " in the words " due " and " tube."

t It may be remarked that, orthographically, instead of the double
ocmaonants gygy, lyly, nyny, tyty, cscs, cscz, szsz, the forms ggy, lly,
nny, tty, ccs, ecz, ssz are used. However, if gy, ly, ny, ty, cs, cz, sz
are at the ends of the words, and the final consonant must be doubled on
acoonnt of sufSx, one must write : dgygyal, with the bed, Sszszel, in
lutnmn. eto.

10

The Vowels. — In Hungarian the different relations between
the parts of speech, the conjugations of verbs, the gradation of
adjectives, and the possessive case, are expressed by means of
suffixes added to the root (which never changes) ; as asztal, table,
asztal-ok, tables, asztal-om, my table ; sztret-ni, to love, szeret-iink,
we love, sztret-tunk, we have loved; magas, high, magas-aiib,
higher.

For this reason the dominating rule is harmony, whick
demands that the suffix must sound like the vowels in the roct.
Consequently, the vowels are divided into ShobtTo, «, i, o, 5, u, «,
and LoNO, a, i, i, 6, 8, 4, &. These are again subdivided into
F1.AT, a, a. o, 6,u,'&i Shabp, e, o, S, ii, u ; and Mediate, i, i, i.
The sharp vowels demand sharp suffixes, whilst the flat and
mediate ones require flat and mediate suffixes respectively.

When the same word contains vowels of two different classes,
the sharp vowels are considered as the principal ones, and the
word belongs to the class of sharp words. Sometimes, however,
the vowel of the last syllable commands the suffix of the same
character.

The choice of the suffix always depends on the vowel of the
root, as hdz, house ; hdz-dk, houses ; hdz-nak, to the house ;
hdz-ban, in the house ; hdz-am, my house. On the contrary,
kert, garden ; kert-ek, gardens ; kert-nek, to the garden ; kert-ben,
in the garden ; kert-em, my garden, etc.

When the demonstrative pronoun ae (that), ez (this), joins the
suffixes, which are used instead of prepositions, its consonant z is
assimilated to the initial consonant of the suffix ; as ar-r6l, of
that, instead of az-rdl ; eb-hol, out of this, instead of ez-bol.

The affixes val, vel, which express the preposition " with," anj
ed, vi, which means " into," assimilate their initial consonant «
to the final consonant of the word to which they are joined ;
thus, kSz-zel, with the hand, instead of kiz-vel.

Prolongation of the Vo'wels. — The short final vowels a
and e are prolonged as often as the word assumes any affix.
This prolongation is common to all words in all granmiatical
forms ; ruha, dress, ruhd-m, my dress, ruhd-t, a dress (objective
case), ruhd-zni, to dress, etc. ; and it extends even so far that, if
affixes which terminate with a short e or a receive any other
affixes whatsoever, the short e or a of the former is accentuated;
as ru/«a, dress, ruhd-ja, his dress, ruhd-jd-val, with his dress.

ELEMENT/iRY GRAMMAR.

The Article. {A Niv»l8.)

There are two articles, the Definite and the Indefinite. The Definite
Article is a for words beginning with a consonant, az for words beginning
with a vowel.

The Indefinite Article is egy, which is also the numeral " one." It is
not the exact equivalent of the English "a," "an," for it is usually
omitted except when stress is laid on the singleness of the object, or in
cases where its meaning is that of "a certain"; it must never be put
bfafore an adjective or noun used as a predicate.

e.g Vcm ebben afaluhan vendigWi (not egy vendigW).
Is there an inn in this village 7

The Substantive, [AF3nh.)

Nouns ending with a vowel form their plural by adding h ; the vowels
a and e then become long, as fa, tree, f&k, trees ; eke, plough, ehik,
ploughs. When a noun ends with a consonant, the plural is formed by
adding ah, ok, ek. Ok. If the consonant is preceded by d or i, then those
vowels are shortened in the plural, excepting those ending in sdg, sig,
g&s, gis, and a few monosyUabio nouns.

The vowel of the last syllable is dropped in the plural when the conso-
nants m-r, k-r, k-l, r-m, r-k and l-k meet ; as Ulek, soul, lelkek, souls ;
jdrom, joke, jdrmoJe, yokes.

The following nouns ending with a vowel take j or v in the plural,
besides the usual plural ending : — mU, a work of art, m&vek, works of
art ; t8, stem, tOvek, stems ; kO, stones, kBvek, stones ; cs8, a tube, esBvek,
tubes, U, juice, levek, juices ; /ffi, herb, fil/veh, herbs ; 16, horse, lovak,
horses.

If a noun is preceded by a numeral or any other word expressing
quantity, then it is used only in the singular, as kit ember, two men ;
sok fa, many trees.

The names of corn, metals, fruit, minerals, etc. — that is to say, all
generic nouns — are collective nouns in Hungarian, and are used in the
singular ; as klirte, a pear or pears ; szilva, a plum or plums.

Declension.

Substantives are divided into six olas-ies or declensions, the plural
endings being taken as the basis for this division; then each class is
divided into two, viz., vdth the short and the long vowels ; as Glass I.,
ak, dk ; II,, ok, 6k ; III., uk ; IV. ek, ik; V., Bk, 3k ; VI., Uk.
' Bespecting gender, see p. 84, tbird paragraph.

68

The suffixes for Olaases I., II. and III. are: For Nominative, the name
itself or with personal suffix ; Attributive or Possessive, nak ; Genitive, ^;
Dative, nak ; Accusative, t.

The suffixes for Classes IV., V. and VI. for the same oases as above
are : nek, i, nek, t.

Personal Suffixes.

The object governed by the attributive case is inflected, as Pitemek
atyja, Peter's father. There are in Hungarian four relations of the
object to the possessor : 1. Object and possessor in Singular, as kOnyv-
em, my book. S. Object in Singular and possessor in Plural, as kSnyv-
Unk, our book. 3. Object in Plural and possessor in Singular, as kSnyv-
eim, my books, i. Object and possessor in Plural, as kOnyv-eink, our
books.

I. The Object in the Singulab •.—hSnyv-em, my book ; kSnyv-ed, thy
book; kSnyv-e, his book; kSnyv-Unk, our book; kSnyv-etek, your book-
kSnyv-Uk, their book.

II. The Object in the Plural : — kOnyv-eim, my books ; kOnyv-eid, thy
books ; kSnyv-ei, his books ; kSnyv-evnk, our books ; kOnyv-eiiek, yout
books ; kdnyv-eik, their books.

The Personal Suffixes of the Six DeclIinbions.

The Object possessed in the Singular : —

I. Plural endings aft, dk. Sing, am, ad, a; dm, dd, dja. Plur. ant,
atok, uk ; dnk, dtok, djok.

II. Plural endings ok, 6k. Sing, om, od, a; 6m, 6d, &ia. Plur. unk
otok,uk[oijuk);6nk,6tok,6jzik.

III. Plural ending ilk. Sing, jim, tld, jija. Plur. link, litok, iXjok.

IV. Plural endings ek, ik. Sing, em, ed, e; im, id, iie. Plur. Unk, eiek,

Uk ; ink, itek, djsk.

^- ^^^J'^} ^^,^'''§\'"'; ''?• Si'ig- "™. a**. « ; ^, Bd, Bje or eje. Plur. Unk,
atok, Uk; Bnk, StOk, SjOk orejuk.

VI. Plural ending Hm. Sing, ilm, M, Hje. Plur. unk, iitok, Hjok.

The Object possessed in the Plural :

I. Plural endings ofc, cifc. Sing, aim, aid, at ; dim, did, di. Pint, aink,
aitok, aik ; dmk, ditok, dik.

II. Plural endings ofc, dk. Sing, aim, aid, ai ; 6im, did, 6i. Plur. aink,
aitok, aik ; 6mk, 6itok, 6ik.

III. Plural ending uk. Sing. Uim, Uid, Ui. Plur. Uink, Hitok, aik.

IV. Plural endings ek, i.k Sing, eim, eid, ei ; Mm, Md, ii. Plur. eink.

e%tek, etk ; imk, iitek, iik. i^ui. »».«.,

V. Plural endings Sk,dk Sing, elm, eid. ei; Sim, Sid, Si or ei. Plur

ei'k, eitek, etk ; Smk, Sitek, Sik OT eik.
VI. Plural ending Uk. Sing. Aim, Uid, Ui. Plur. Uink, Uitek, Uik.

69

In order to be able to find to what declension a noun belongs, one has to
form its plural ending ; as OkiSr, an ox, plur. SkrOk. Its ending dk indi-
cates that its personal suffix is in Class V. The same rule one can apply
for the monosyllabic nouns ; as atya, father, anya, mother, bdtya, elder
brother, take in the third person sing, and plur. j'o and /oil, instead of
dja, djok, while dcs, younger brother, takes cs instead oij.

The genitive suffix 4 for all nouns expresses possession as well ; as, Ez a
k"2ap Piteri, this hat is Peter's.

Suffixes.

To indicate places and directions, instead of prepositions Hungarian
tias suffixes. They are classified as follows : —

1. Ketaining or remaining: ban hen; as Twi^-ftam, in the house.

2. Indicating: on, en. On; as hdM-on, on or upon the house — after a

vowel only n : as eke, plough, ekin, on the plough.

3. Besting : ndl, nil ; as 8 atydm-ndl van, he is with my father.

1. Inward direction: ba, be; as u hdi-ba megyek, I go into the
house.

5. Upward direction : ra, re ; as tedd az asztal-ra, put it on the table.

6. Approaching : hoz, hez, hOz ; as hdz-hoz, to the house.

7. Outward direction : b6l, bol ; as ki-vettem a kosdr-bdl, I took it out

of the basket.

8. Downward direction: r6l, rBl; as a kim&ny leesett a hdzrdl, the

chimney fell down from the house.

9. Moving or starting: tdl, tSl: as a hds-tdl tdvozott, he moved (oi

started) from the house.

10. Limiting : ig, as a hdz-ig, as far as the house.

11. Causative : irt, as p&nz-irt, for money ; bardtsdg-irt, for friendship.

12. Auxiliary: val, vel, as ds6-val, with a spade. [Note: with nouns

ending in consonants val or vel drops the v and doubles the con-
sonant, as kezem-mel, and not kezem-vel, with my hand.]

13. Transmuting : vd, vi, as L6t neje sd-vd vdlioz-ott. Lot's wife was

turned into salt.

14. Demonstrative : Hi, HI, as mmtd-ill killdOk, I send as a sample;

pildd-iil, for instance.

The Postposition.** (NSvutdk.)

The Hungarian language has no prepositions ; it has postpositions, for
they are always put after the noun.

The postpositions expressing place are divided into three classes ; they
answer the three questions — hoi ? where ? (place) ; Jwvd ? whither ? ;
honnan ? where from ?

The postpositions answering the question hoi ? are : alatt, under ; elStt,
before ; mellett, beside ; mSgStt, behind ; kSzStt or kSzt, between, amongst ;
fOlOtt 01 felett, above ; kSr&l, round.

The postpositions answering the question hovd ? are : aid, under ; eli, in
front of ; melli, beside ; kSzi, between, amongst ; fSU, above ; feli,
towards, in the direction of ; kOri, round.

The postpositions answering the question honnan ? are : aldl, from
beneath ; el8l, from the front ; mellSl, from the side ; mSgUl, from
behind ; kOzUl, from amongst ; feWl, from the side of.
* For li»b of postpoi>itiou:> see pp. UJ-U6.

70

All these postpositions take pronominal suffixes, as alatt-am, under me;
alatt-ad, under thee ; alatt-a, under him ; alatt-unk, under us ; alatt-
atok, under you ; alatt-uk, under them.

KBrUl forms kGrill9tt-em, kSralHtt-ed, ki^UlOtte, etc. The other post-
positions are : utdn, after ; miilva, at the end of (does not take any sufBx);
kSzben, in the midst of (no suffix) ; 6ta, since (no suffix) ; dltal, hj inilkill,
without; szermt, according to ; ellen, against; irdnt, towards; miatt, on
account of ; vigett, because, for ; helyett, instead ; gyandnt, in the shape
of (no suffix).

The postpositions dt, through, above, keresztul, across, innen, on this
side, till, on the other side, belill, within, kivUl, without, alul, above,
fOlal, underneath, require the suifixes n, on, en, iSn, to be added to the
preceding substantive.

Fogva, on account of, requires ndl, nil, but when it means " since " it
requires tdl, tSl. Kipest, in proportion to, requires hoz, hex, hOz. Niave,
as to, requires, ra, r^. Egyiltt, together, requires val, vel, to be added to
the substantive.

The Adjective* {A MelUknh,.)

When the adjective is used as a substantive, all suffixes, except the
possessive ones (even the article az or as) may be used with it.

A Qualiflcative adjective always precedes the substantive and does not
change, as a nagy asstal, the large table ; a nagy asztalok, the large tables.

An Attributive adjective is placed after the substantive, and takes
suffixes of number. The verb in the present is not expressed: az
asztal nagy, the table is large ; az asztalok nagyok, the tables are large.

When a question is made the adjective is put before the substantive, as
Magas a torony? — Is the tower high?

Adjectives are inflected in the same way as substantives, but there
are the following variations from the general rule : —

Not all adjectives ending in a vowel take k. Those which end in i take
ek, as rigi, ancient, rigi-ek. Those which end in ti»or H take sometimes
k, sometimes ak or ek, as hosszti, long, hosseHk or hosszu-ak.

The adjectives containing one or more sharp vowels and ending with s
{as, OS, 6s) and ikony take ak ; the others take ok.

All the adjectives containing one or more mediate vowels take ek.

The suffix Bk is not used for adjectives.

When the adjective kis, small, is a predicate, then it takes the form

Adjectives put in apposition precede the substantive, as Charles the
Great, Nagy Kdroly.

Comparison of Adjectives.

The comparative of equality is expressed by the words oly, olyan, &ppoly,
ippen oly, szintoly, ■put before adjectives; "as "is translated by mint.
Thus : Bdtydm oly nagy, mint te, my brother is as tail as thou.

The negation nem is put before oly ; as Az iskola nem oly nagy, mint a
templom, the school is not so large as the church.

The comparative of superiority is formed by adding 66 to adjectives
ending with a vowel, abb or ebb to those ending with consonants.

• For list of aajectires see pp. 55-58. For Demonstrative Adjectives see
Demonstrative Pronouns, p. 73.

71

Final a and « become longer when bb is joined to it ; thus, drdga, ex
pensive, becomes d/rdgdbb, more expensive, while d shortens its sound in
jd, good, jobb, better.

The superlative is formed by prefixing leg or legesleg to the comparative,
as legjobb, the best.

The following adjectives are irregular in their comparatives :

Comparative. Comparative.

szip, beautiful szebb
sok, much tObb

hosseu, long hosssabb

kOrmyii, easy, light hOnnyebb
The superlative is regular.

nagy, big nagyobb
j6, good jobb

ifju, young ifjabb

The Pronoun. (A Nk-mds.)
Personal Pronouns.

They are : in,l\ te, thou ; 5, he, she ; mi, we ; ti, you ; Sh, they.

Singular.
N. in, I te, thou S, he or she

D. nekem, to or for me neked, to or for thee re«&i, to or for him, her
A. sr.gem, me i^grci, thee St or (3i«i, him, her

Plural.
N. mi, we Ji, ye or you Sfc, they

D. nekilnk, to or for us nektek, toorforye,you nekik, to or for them
A. minket or titeket or benneteket, Sket, them

bennWnket, us ye or you

The second form of the accusative — bennilnket, benneteket — is more
emphatic, and should be translated into English : all of us, all of you, all
of them.

As to attributive and genitive cases of the personal pronouns they are
in the singular nekem, neked, neki ; in the plural nekilnk, nektek, nekik.

If the possessor is represented by a pronoun governing the object pos-
sessed directly, then the attributive pronoun is not placed before its
object, which, being sufSxed with the pronoun, expresses the person to
whom it belongs; e.g., kalap-om, my hat; kalap-od, thy hat; kalap-ja,
his hat.

But when an emphasis is necessary, then the uninflected personal is
to be used instead of the attributive pronoun; e.g., Asinkalapom, my
hat — not yours.

The attributive pronoun is always used in its inflected form — nekem,
naked, etc. — when it stands as subjective and not written ou t at all ; if i(
stands as attribute, then it is in its uninflected form — en, te, @, etc.

Possessive Pronouns.

They are : enyim, mine ; tied, thine ; Bvi, his ; miink, ours ; tietek.
yours ; Ovik, theirs.

These pronouns are a contraction of possessor and object possessed,
They are formed of the personal pronoun as possessor and the suffixes of

n

tao objective case. They stand by themselves : ez enyim, this is mine;
myim, it is mine; and they take all the suffixes of the substantives except
those of the plural, which they form in the same way as the personal
suffixes— viz., enyim, tied, Gvi, miink, tietek, dvik—usei when the object
possessed is in the singular ; enyiim, tieid, Ovii, mieink, tieitek, Oviik—
used when the object possessed is in the plural.

These are the forms of the pronouns that would correspond to the
substantives inflected with the suffixes for place or diieotiou : —

Singular. Plural.

Retainino or Remaining — Ben.

bennem, bermed, benne bennUnk, bennetek, bennllk
in me, etc.

Indicating — Bajt.

rajtcmi, rajtad, rajta rajtunk, rajtatok, rajtuh
on me, etc.

Resting — NAl.

ndlam, ndlad, ndla ndlunk, ndlatok, ndluk

with me, etc.

Inwaud Dibeotion — Be.

belim, belid, beU beUnk, beUtek, bel^Uk

into me, etc.

Upward Direction — Ba.

rdm, rdd, rd rdnk, rdtok, rdjok

on me.

\ pproachinq — Hoz.

hozzdm, hozzdd. hoBzd hozednk, hozzdtok, hozzdjok
towards me.

OuTWAKD Direction — Bel.

beldlem, belSled, belSle beldliiaik, belBletek, belSlSk
out of me, from me, etc.

Downward Direction — Bd.

rdlam, rdlad, rdla rdlunk, rdUUok, rOluk

of me, etc.

Moving Away — TOl.

tSlem, tBled, tSle tBlilnk, tSletek, tdlOk

Causative — ilrU

irtem, Med, &rte irtUnk, irtetek, irtilk

because of me, for me, etc.

Reflexive Pronouns.

They are: majfam, myself ; magad, thyaeii; maga, himaeU ; magunk,
ourselves ; magatok, yourselves ; maguk, themselves.

Kaja has also the meaning "alone"; as magam vagyok, I am alone.
Sometimes maga has the meaning of "my own"; as magam kOnyve,
my own book.

78

The other forms of Tnaga are :

en magam or ennenmagam, myself rmnmagimh or invimervniag'imk

tenmagad or tennenmagad tinmagatok or tinnenmagatok

Onmaga or BnnOnmaga Bnmagunk or OnnOnmagunk

Note. — Mdsodmagammal, I with another ; harmadmagammal, 1 and two
others; negyedmagaiiimal, I and three others, etc.

When the relation is reoiprooal, then they are reoiprooals ; as egijmdst,
one another, each other.

Demonstrative Pronouns. 1

They are : ez, this ; emez, this here ; ugyanez, this same ; as, that ;
amaz, that there ; ugyanaz, that same.

Ez and az, prefixed with ugyan or alone, point to a certain thing among
others of the same class ; while ezen, azon, refer to certain things among
others of any class.

Az and ez follow the sabstantive and are inflected; azon and ezen
stand before it and could not be inflected.

Before suffixes beginning with a consonant, az and ez change z into
the first letter of the suffix. Az-nak changes into annak ; az-ba changes
into abba ; az-ra into arra, etc.
The other forms (mostly obsolete) of maga are :
emnagam or ennenmagam, myself rmnmagunk
tenmagad or tennenmagad tmmagatok

Medial Verbs.

They are Deponent, Passive and Neuter. Only the last two have the
indefinite form. The deponents may be used in a transitive sense, and
can be declined also in the definite form ; e.g., lakrvi (to dwell) is neuter,
lakni (to inhabit) is transitive, for there must be an object inhabited. In
the indefinite form these are conjugated like neuter (medial), and in the
definite like the active verbs ; as

Indefinite: lakom, lakol, lakik, lakunk, laktok, Idknak, I dwell, etc.

Definite : lakom, lakod, lakja, lakjuk, lakjdtok, lakjdk, I inhabit (this
house), etc.

78

In the Medial verbs the 3rd peison sing, of the present tense indicative
dnds in ih; the active and intransitive and transitive verbs have no dis-
tinguishing ending. For this reason the Hungarian grammarians divide
the verbs into ikes and iktelen ige; viz., verbs with ih and without t«.

Forms of the Verbs.

Primitive : ir, he writes.

Factitive : wat, he causes, orders or commands to write.

Frequentative : irogat indicates a repetition of the action expressed
in the Primitive.

Diminutive : irhdl (he is scribbling) signifies a playful action.

Permissive : irhal, he may or can write.

If the 1st person acts upon the 2ud person, the distinguishing termi-
nation of the verb will be for all moods and tenses lak (for flat words) or
lek (for sharp words) ; e.g., verlek, I beat thee ; vdrlak, I expect thee.
But when acting upon a substantive in the 3rd person, the general rule is
to be followed ; e.g.,

Indefinite : verek, versz, ver, verilnk, vertek, vernek, I beat, etc.
Definite ; verlek or verem, vered, veri, verjiik, veritek, verik, I beat (it)
etc.

Participles.

Imperfect : d,S; e.g., egy aratd embr-r, a reaping man (man that reaps)

Perfect : t, ott, elt, 8tl ; e.g., az aratutt gabona.

Future: and6, endS; e.g., az aratandd bitza, the wheat to be reaped.

The first two have adverbial forms : for the present, va, ve, e.g., siidlva
walking ; for past vdn, vin, e.g., seltdlvdn, having been walking.

Examples of the Use of the Five Participles.

Egy szenvendS ember, a suffering man.

Bgy szenvedett ember, a sufiered (tolerated) man.

Egy szenvendendd ember, a man to be suffered.

Adverbial participles are not inflected, while adjective participles are
inflected as adjectives and, like these, may stand for substantives', e.g.,
egy szenvedS ember, a suffering man ; egy szenvedd, a sufferer.

The Imperfect participle is used both as adjective and substantive ; e.g.,
szenvedS, sufferer, ir6, writer, Idtogatd, visitor.

Every transitive verb has two forms, the definite and the indefinite,
and the chief difficulty in Hungarian is to know which form to use. The
definite form is used when the object is a clearly marked-out one ; the
indefinite form when the object is more or less indefinite.

e.g., I am writing " this letter," eet a levelet irom.
I am writing " letters," leveleket irok

Of active and of medial verbs (verbs at the same time active and
passive) may be formed causal verbs by adding at, tat to flat sounding, and
et, tet to sharp sounding verbs. Tlie meaning of the causal verbs differs
from the primitive form in that the action is not done by the agent itself,
but that the latter causes something or somebody else to do it. In

79

English there is no corresponding form ; in German it is expressed by the
infinitive and the verb lassen, e.g., ohiastatni (in German, leseii lassen),
to cause to read. All causal verbs are transitive and are conjugated in
the indefinite and definite form,

Hungarian has no passive voice for active verbs, but grammarians have-
introduced a so-called passive voice for transitive verbs, restricted to a
few of them only. The root ol the passive is the same as of the causal
verb, but it is conjugated like the neuter verb, as szeretni, to love, olvasni
to read ; e.g.,

Indefinite.
szeret-tet-em '\ •^
saeret-tet-el
szeret-tet-ik
sseret-tet-Unk
sscret-tet-tek

e.g., illik nekem, it is becoming for me ; engem iUet, it concerns me ; fdj

Compound Verbs.

These are made by prefixing to the verbs postpositions, adverbs or
suffixes for place and direction, as vemii, to take ; elvemm, to take away;
fOlvenni, to take up ; ievenni, to take in. The verb is inflected in the
same manner as when it stands by itself.

Irregular Verbs.

These are verbs which mortify or cause the disappearance of sz and gy.

There are but two verbs mortifying gy — vagyon, to be, and megyen, to go.

Yagycn is not only irregular but also imperfect, for it borrows its form

for the future and the imperative from UnnA, to become. Megyen. to go,

is only irregular in that it has two primitive forms for the present

indicative, as

megyek or menek, I go megyilnk or menilnk. we go

migy „ misz, thou goest mentek, you go
megy „ m4n, he goes mennek, they go

The 2nd and 3rd persons plural are wanting ; in all other moods and

tenses this verb takes men as its root, and is conjugated as an intransitive

verb.

Etymology.

New woras are formed iu two ways :

(1) By means of affixes, called formatives.

(2) By putting words together.

Those in the first class are called derivatives; in the latter, compounds.

The formatives create new ideas, as hde, house ; lidzald, pedlar ;
Mzassdg, matrimony, marriage.

An inflected word cannot take a formative, but a word formed' by
means of a formative is inflected according to the part of speech to which
't belongs. Derivatives may also take formatives.

Examples showing the stem-word of the following derivatives :
Hare (subst.), battle.
hard (adj.), pertaining to battle.
liarcias (adj.), valorous, warlike

harciaskod (-ni) (verb), to battle, to be engaged in war.
hardaskodds (abstr. subst.), struggle, the state of being at war,

challenging.
harciaskoddsi (adj.), pertaining to struggle, war, or fighting

Substantives are formed by adding sdg, sig to adjectives, as szip, pretty
(adj.), sz&p-sig, beauty; j6, good (&&].), j6-sdg, goodness.

By adding ds, is to verbs; e.g., &ll (-ni), to stand, dll-d,s, position,
standing.

By adding as, es, Os, or dr, ir to substantives, new substantives are
formed; e.g., asztal, tahle, a^zialos, joiner; Zc^s, knife, Z6^s««, cutler ; kdd,
coop, tub, hdddr, cooper.

Imperfect participles can be used as substantives; e.g., olvasd, reader ;
aratd reaper.

Diminutives are formed by adding ka, Ice ; e.g., Idny, a girl, Idny-ka, a
little girl. By adding ocska, eeske ; e.g., ablak, window, ablak-ocska, a
small window.

Adjectives are formed by adding as, os, e.i. Us to substantives ; e.g., hely,
place, helyes, proper (in the right place) ; toll, feather, tollas, provided
with feathers ; arany, gold, aranyos, golden, or covered with gold.

Talon or telen are negatives ; as hely-telen, improper ; hatdr-talan,
without limit.

If i is put after names of places it should be translated by "of," as
budapest-i, of Budapest ; hdz-i, domestic.

Diminutives of adjectives are formed by adding « to adjectives ending
with a vowel, or «g, ds, os, to consonants; e.g., sdrgra, yellow, sdrgds,
yellowish ; »reg, old, Oreges, elderly.

Verbs are formed by adding al, ol, el, or o«, ee, to substantives, which
then become active verbs ; as hda-al {-ni}, to peddle ; vas-al {-ni), to iron ;
ablak-oz {-mi), to furnish with windows.

84

By adding it, HI, 41 to adjectives — the former for transitive and the
latter for intransitive verbs — as Mk, blue ; Mkit, he makes blue ; kiMl,
it is getting blue (by itself) .

By adding oi, Sz, ez, dz to postpositions, as aid, under, aldz {-ni), to
humble; Ml, beyond, tiiloz (-ni), to exaggerate.

As there are no genders in Hungarian, the suffix ni (wife of) or n6 (in
the case of occupation or calling) is added to the noun to distinguish a _
vfoman from a man; e.g., kirdly, Mng, kirdlynd, queen ; szlnisz, actor,
szinisznd, actress. Queen Alexandra is a hwalyni (wife of a king) ;
Queen Victoria was a kirdlynS (queen in her own right).

To distinguish the sex of persons of the same nationality, ember (man)
or nd (woman) is added, as in English, but the two words are kept
separate ; e.g. angol ember, Englishman, angol nd. Englishwoman.

Many of the domestic animals have separate names to distinguish their
sex, as in English ; e.g., kakas, cook, tyuk, hen. In every other case the
name of the animal is preceded by him or kwn to denote a male, and by
ndsUny to signify a female; e.g., Mm farfcas, a, he-wolf, n5sUny farkas,
a she- wolf .

Modes of address.

There are several titles in use in Hungary : —

8 fels&ge, his Majesty ; felsiges Hr, your Majesty ;

fensig. Highness.

NagymUtdsdgu or kegyelmes. Excellency ; miltdsdgos, illustrious ; nagy-
sdgos, great, grand; tekintetes, distinguished, highly respected. All of
these qualifications must be followed by ur or uram.

Ladies are addressed as nagysdgos asszonyom ("great lady") — con-
tracted nagysdd.
Nagysdgod is a title of address equivalent to " Your Honour," etc.

To translate " you " one uses on, plur. finSfe ; kegyed, piur. kegyetek',
lot very often : maga, plur. tnaqiik.

As regards the placing of titles, kirdly, king, csdszdr, emperor, and
fdherceg, archduke, are always written after the proper name, as Vilmos
csdHsdr, the Emperor William. Herceg, duke, gr6f, count, and bdrd, baron,
may be used before the name, but it is more usual to put them after it.
