URALIC: HUNGARIAN & TUNDRA NENETS

Welcome to my channel! This is Andy from I love languages. Let’s learn different languages/dialects together. Hungarian is a Uralic language of the proposed Ugric branch spoken in Hungary and parts of several neighbouring countries. It is the official language of Hungary and one of the 24 official languages of the European Union. Outside Hungary, it is also spoken by Hungarian communities in southern Slovakia, western Ukraine (Transcarpathia), central and western Romania (Transylvania), northern Serbia (Vojvodina), northern Croatia, northeastern Slovenia (Prekmurje), and eastern Austria (Burgenland). It is also spoken by Hungarian diaspora communities worldwide. With 14 million speakers, it is the Uralic family’s largest member by number of speakers. Nenets comprises two languages, Tundra Nenets and Forest Nenets, spoken in northern Russia. Tundra Nenets, with 30,000 to 40,000 speakers, spans from the Kanin Peninsula to the Yenisei River, while Forest Nenets has 1,000 to 1,500 speakers naear the Agan, Pur, Lyamin, and Nadym rivers. Both are Uralic languages, distantly related to Finnish, Estonian, and Hungarian, and influenced by Russian. Tundra Nenets has had a well-documented literary tradition since the 1930s, but Forest Nenets, first written in the 1990s, is less documented.
