Detail The Language Situation in Hungary   Oleh:  Miklosy, Katalin ; Medgyes, Peter Jenis: Article from Journal Dalam koleksi: Current Issues in Language Planning vol. 1 no. 2 (2000), page 148-242. Fulltext: Vol.1, No.2, 2000, 148-242.pdf (959.36KB) Isi artikel This monograph reports on the language situation in Hungary, a largelymonolingual country, where nearly 98%of the population speak Hungarian as their first language. Therefore, the primary focus of the study is on the Hungarian language as used by some 10 million people within the national borders of Hungary, and less attention is paid to eitherHungarian as a minority language spokenmostly in the neighbouring countries, or the language of ethnic minorities living in Hungary. At the same time, conscious of the fact that the Hungarian language is of limited use outside Hungary, Hungarians have always attached great importance to foreign language learning. The secondary focus of this monograph, therefore, is placed on issues concerning foreign language instruction. While the language situation of Hungary is examined from a historical perspective, the main emphasis is placed on the presentation of recent developments, especially those occurring since the fall of communism in 1989.
