Hungarian (pronunciation: /hʌŋˈɡɛəriən/; magyar) is a Uralic language 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. In the context of medicine, Hungarian has contributed to several medical terms and practices.
