Hungarian Language Poker Software

Hungarian is a Finno-Ugric language under the broader category of Uralic languages. Most closely related to two westerna Siberian languages, Hungarian also has distant similarities to Finnish. Hungarian in its own language is called Magyar. While Hungarian writings first appeared in the 13th century, it wasn't until 1527 when the first printed Hungarian book was published in Krakow, Poland.

Hungarian has nearly 15 million speakers worldwide. The majority of Hungarian is spoken in Hungary where it is the official national language. The second largest concentration of Hungarian speakers is in Romania. Sections of Serbia, Slovakia and Ukraine designate Hungarian as an official regional language due to large numbers of Hungarians living in these neighboring countries. Other Hungarian-speaking communities exist in Austria, Croatia, Canada, Australia and the United States.

Chatting during games is almost exclusively limited to English to accommodate the largest number of international players at table games. Non-English chatting is usually allowed during Hungarian specific tournaments or freerolls when they are available, since all the players in that event understand Magyar.
