Country Report Hungary Final COUNTRY REPORT HUNGARY Ministry of Education, Hungary Language Education Policy Profile 2002 - 2003 Introduction In 2002 the Language Policy Division of the Council of Europe set out the principles and methods for the production of Language Policy Profiles in member states. The Ministry of Education of the Republic of Hungary was the first to begin drafting a Language Policy Profile, and it called on the Council of Europe for assistance in the completion of this task. In the summer of 2002, the advisers to the Language Policy Division, Michael Byram and Jean-Claude Beacco, together with Joseph Sheils, Head of Language Policy Division, visited Budapest to make preliminary arrangements. After this visit, the Ministry of Education commissioned a Hungarian working group to prepare the Country Report necessary for the production of a Language Education Country Profile . This task was promptly completed within a month. This document served as a basis for discussion with the six-member Council of Europe expert group, during their visit in October, when they met language education policy deciders, experts and representatives of civil society. The Council of Europe expert group will produce an Experts‘ Report at the beginning of 2003, which together with the Country Report, will be the subject of a roundtable discussion during a subsequent visit with the participation of language education policy deciders and experts, and the representatives of civil society. Following this spring visit, the Hungarian authorities, in close cooperation with the Council of Europe expert group, will complete the final version of the Language Education Profile of Hungary. This Country Report is published separately as a complementary document providing necessary information on the context and framework for the Language Education Policy Profile. Members of the Hungarian working group commissioned to prepare the Country Report: Zsuzsánna Darabos Senior official of Kiss Êrpád National Public Education Institute Katalin Forray R. Professor at the Faculty of Humanities of the Pécs University of Sciences Zsuzsanna Horváth Official of the National Public Education Institute Zoltán Poór Senior lecturer at the Teacher Training Faculty of the Veszprém University Péter Rádai Teacher at the English Teacher Training Centre of Eötvös Lóránd University of Sciences Êgnes Vámos Senior lecturer at the Pedagogical Institute of Eötvös Lóránd University of Sciences 2 In the course of preparing the basis for the Language Policy Profile of Hungary the following questions have risen: • What is the definition of language, language competence and language education? • What should be considered as the context and environment of language education? • To what extent should we take into account the social, historical, cultural, economic, legal and international circumstances? Furthermore, although we did not have to prepare a language policy analysis, the interpretation of language policy and the determination of umbrella terms were essential for the foundations as set out in this report. Due to the limited time available, the edited version of the studies for the Country Report as a starting point for Language Education Policy Profile of Hungary does not rely on a uniform theoretical and conceptual basis, clarifying all details. When describing the various subjects of language education, the authors followed the recommended structure to facilitate international comparison, but they worked autonomously on the content. Members of the working group were free to decide which reference books, background materials, manuscripts, sources, documents, databases, interviews and opinions expressed during conferences would be used to describe different components of language education in Hungary. It was not a requirement to resolve all disputed theoretical issues or all the differing views of groups of researchers and policy developers; therefore the final version is mainly based on the opinions held by its authors, and thus provides a diversity of views. Although the authors wanted to gather the maximum amount of information possible for the analysis of language education policy, it has to be admitted that they could not contribute equally fully to all parts of the Country Report. Variations in coverage do not necessarily reflect the importance of various problems and language education areas, but simply reflect the quantity and depth of information available for the authors in the areas concerned, as no original research could be conducted. The authors do not refer to developments after the completion of the Country Report in September 2002, such as the amendment of the Public and Higher Education Act and the World-Language Program, because their report applies to language education before 2002. The final document - Language Education Policy Profile œ will contain a reference to these changes, which are the result of regulations concerning language education and strategic initiatives. The authors of the Country Report would like to express their gratitude to all those whose background materials, professional opinions, recommendations and collections of necessary data and sources contributed to making the final version of this document more precise, professional, detailed and comprehensive: Mr. Gábor Boldizsár, Mr. BenB Csapó, Ms. András Deli, Ms. Márta Fazekas, Ms. Êgnes Garay-Madarász, Mr. László Gremsperger, Ms. Zsófia Jánvári Lux, Ms. Johanna Kapitánffy, Ms. Krisztina Kolosy Bene, Mr. István Kraszlán, Ms. Zsuzsanna Kurtán, Mr. Tamás Légrádi, Ms. Marianne Nikolov, Mr. Tamás Nyitrai, Ms. EnikB Öveges, Ms. Gabriella Papp, Mr. Antal Paulik, Ms. Andrea Perlusz, Ms. Judit Sárvári, Ms. István Simon and Ms. Edina Vándorffy Lancz. 3 Introduction ........................................................................................................... 2 1 General background to Language Policy in Hungary .................................................... 6 1.1 Language use ...................................................................................................... 6 1.2 Human, minority and language rights ................................................................ 7 1.3 General features of minorities ............................................................................ 8 1.4 Non-Hungarian citizens living in Hungary ...................................................... 10 2 Regulations on education and language education policies ......................................... 11 2.1 The legal framework of language learning in public education ....................... 11 2.2 Acts concerning language education in higher education ................................ 14 3 Language learning opportunities in public education .................................................. 15 3.1 Facts and trends in Hungarian language teaching ............................................ 15 3.2 Facts and trends in foreign language education................................................ 16 3.3 Fact and trends in minority nursery school and school education.................... 19 3.4 Roma children in public education................................................................... 22 3.5 Foreign languages as languages of instruction in public education ................. 23 4 Foreign language education in higher education.......................................................... 28 4.1 Before 1990 ...................................................................................................... 28 4.2 After 1990......................................................................................................... 28 4.3 Teaching Hungarian in higher education.......................................................... 33 5 Adult language education............................................................................................. 35 5.1 Activities of language schools.......................................................................... 35 5.2 Teaching Hungarian as a foreign language for adults ...................................... 35 6 Results in language education ...................................................................................... 36 6.1 Functional indices of performance in public education.................................... 36 6.2 Language examinations .................................................................................... 40 6.3 Hungarian and international surveys and diagnoses about Hungary................ 40 6.4 Development..................................................................................................... 42 6.5 Language competence of adults ....................................................................... 44 7 Language use of the deaf: sign language in Hungary................................................... 46 8 Teacher training, teacher supply................................................................................... 47 8.1 Language teacher training ................................................................................ 47 8.2 Professional development of language teachers............................................... 53 9 The role of the civil society in language learning and teaching................................... 54 9.1 The role of non-government organisations and movements in the protection and cultivation of the Hungarian language....................................................... 54 9.2 Associations of teachers ..................................................................................

  • Literacy and Illiteracy in Austria–Hungary. the Case of Bulgarian Migrant Communities
    Hungarian Historical Review 3, no. 3 (2014): 683–711 Penka Peykovska Literacy and Illiteracy in Austria–Hungary. The Case of Bulgarian Migrant Communities The present study aims to contribute to the clarification of the question of the spread of literacy in East Central Europe and the Balkans in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by offering an examination of Bulgarian migrant diasporas in Austria–Hungary and, in particular, in Hungary, i.e. the Eastern part of the Empire. The study of literacy among migrants is important because immigrants represent a possible resource for the larger societies in which they live, so comparisons of the levels of education among migrants (for instance with the levels of education among the majority community, but also with the levels of education among the communities of their homelands) may shed light on how the different groups benefited from interaction with each other. In this essay I analyze data on literacy, illiteracy and semi-literacy rates among migrants on the basis of the Hungarian censuses of 1890, 1900 and 1910. I present trends and tendencies in levels of literacy or illiteracy in the context of the social aspects of literacy and its relationship to birthplace, gender, age, confession, migration, selected destinations and ethnicity. I also compare literacy rates among Bulgarians in Austria–Hungary with the literacy rates among other communities in the Dual Monarchy and Bulgaria and investigate the role of literacy in the preservation of identity. My comparisons and analyses are based primarily (but not exclusively) on data regarding the population that had reached the age at which school attendance was compulsory, as this data more accurately reflect levels of literacy than the data regarding the population as a whole.

  • Hungarian Prehistory Series
    Hungarian Prehistory Series The Hungarians moved to their later homeland, the Carpathian basin at the end of the ninth century. Prior to this period they lived in the western part of the southern Russian steppe as vassals of the Khazar Kaghanate. The ethnic envi- ronment of the Kaghanate had a great impact on the ethnogenesis of the Hun- garians as testified by the numerous Turkic and Iranian loan words as well as the art, the military and the political structure of the Hungarians in the period of the conquest. Therefore, from the point of view of Hungarian prehistory, it is crucial to be familiar with the history of the nomadic peoples, that is, with the "oriental background." The Hungarian Prehistory Series, launched in 1990, aimed to pub- lish source editions, collected papers and monographs in connection with the history of the Eurasian steppe. It includes historical, linguistical and archaeologi- cal studies. The Department of Medieval World History (University of Szeged) has played an active role in the publication of the series since 1994. The published volumes of the series until 2000 are the following: Vol. 1. Őstörténet és nemzettudat 1919-1931. [Prehistory and the National Con- sciousness.] Ed. Eva Kineses Nagy, Szeged 1991.

  • Proceedings of the 7Th Workshop on NLP for Similar Languages
    COLING 2020 Proceedings of the 7th VarDial Workshop on NLP for Similar Languages, Varieties and Dialects, Co-located with the 28th International Conference on Computational Linguistics COLING’2020 VarDial ’2020 December 13, 2020 Barcelona, Spain (Online) Copyright of each paper stays with the respective authors (or their employers). ISBN 978-1-952148-47-7 ii Preface These proceedings include the 27 papers presented at the Seventh Workshop on NLP for Similar Languages, Varieties and Dialects (VarDial)1, co-located with the 28th International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING). VarDial and COLING were scheduled to take place in Barcelona, Spain, but both were changed to a virtual format due to the COVID-19 outbreak. We are glad to see that VarDial keeps growing in popularity, reaching its seventh edition. Moreover, this year, we received an all-time high number of regular submissions —21 papers —, and we accepted 15 of them to be presented at the workshop. These papers deal with various topics related to the processing of diatopic language variation in both text and speech. This volume includes papers on topics such as automatic speech recognition, corpus building, pre-processing, syntactic parsing, language identification, and machine translation, to name a few. Diversity is innate to VarDial due to its focus on dialects and under-resourced languages. We are happy that the workshop continues to bring together researchers working on different languages, sharing ideas and contributing to advancing the state of the art of NLP for dialects, low-resource languages, and language varieties. This year, we accepted papers dealing with languages such as Armenian, Basque, German, Italian, Kurdish, and Occitan, as well as groups of dialects and low-resource languages from families such as Dravidian, Slavic, and Zaza-Gorani.

This situation has made the search for a single Austro-Hungarian identity so difficult that many historians have declared it impossible. Yet the Dual Monarchy possessed one potentially unifying cultural aspect that has long been critically neglected: the extensive repertoire of marches and patriotic music performed by the military bands of the Imperial and Royal Austro- Hungarian Army. This Militärmusik actively blended idioms representing the various nationalist musics from around the empire in an attempt to reflect and even celebrate its multinational makeup.

Sargent 2.1 Introduction Since the middle 1960s, many Western economies have experienced persistent and growing rates of inflation. Some prominent economists and statesmen have become convinced that this inflation has a stubborn, self-sustaining momentum and that either it simply is not susceptible to cure by conventional measures of monetary and fiscal restraint or, in terms of the consequent widespread and sustained unemployment, the cost of eradicating inflation by monetary and fiscal measures would be prohibitively high. It is often claimed that there is an underlying rate of inflation which responds slowly, if at all, to restrictive monetary and fiscal measures.1 Evidently, this underlying rate of inflation is the rate of inflation that firms and workers have come to expect will prevail in the future. There is momentum in this process because firms and workers supposedly form their expectations by extrapolating past rates of inflation into the future. If this is true, the years from the middle 1960s to the early 1980s have left firms and workers with a legacy of high expected rates of inflation which promise to respond only slowly, if at all, to restrictive monetary and fiscal policy actions.
