About the Hungarian language.
Hungarian is the official language of Hungary and an official language of the European Union. It is a Uralic language, not related to its Slavic, Germanic or Romance neighbours, and distantly related to Finnish and Estonian. It is written in the Latin alphabet, with letters such as ö, ő, ü and ű.
Hungarian names are written family name first. Translations follow the order used on the identity document or passport. Hungarian has short and long vowels (ö and ő, ü and ű) that are different letters. We keep them exactly as written. Hungarian builds long words with suffixes, which can affect layouts, forms and subtitles.
Hungarian to English is usually personal, civil, academic and company documents. English to Hungarian is usually business, technical and marketing content.
Common Hungarian documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, degree certificates and police clearance certificates. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
