Hungarian Language Day is an important occasion to draw attention to the value and richness of our language. The unique features of the Hungarian language have distinguished it from others around the world for centuries.
We celebrate Hungarian Language Day on November 13, as this is the day on which Hungarian became the official language of the legislature.
On November 13, 1844, the National Assembly passed a significant law stating that Hungarian would become the official language of the Hungarian state, replacing Latin.
