  • As for the origin…Hungarian is a weird language.

    a weirdo indeed ☞

    Hungarian is a member of the Uralic language family. Linguistic connections between Hungarian and other Uralic languages were noticed in the 1670s, and the family’s existence was established in 1717. Hungarian is assigned to the Ugric branch along with the Mansi and Khanty languages of western Siberia (Khanty–Mansia region of North Asia). However, there is debate on whether that is a valid grouping. The classification of the Hungarian language as Uralic has historically been the subject of intense scholarly debate, with a number of prominent linguists arguing that Hungarian is a Turkic language. Historically, the language was written using the Old Hungarian Script, an alphabetic writing system born from the Old Turkic Script.

    When the Samoyedic languages were determined to be part of the family, some linguists initially assumed that Finnic and Ugric were closer to each other than to the Samoyedic branch of the family. That is now frequently rejected.

    The name of Hungary could be a result of regular sound changes of Ungrian/Ugrian, and the fact that the Eastern Slavs referred to Hungarians as Ǫgry/Ǫgrove (sg. Ǫgrinŭ) seemed to confirm that. Current literature favors the hypothesis that it comes from the name of the Turkic tribe Onoğur (which means ‘ten arrows’ or ‘ten tribes’).











  • i’ve already picked in the past from a neighbor tree. Red fluid that oozes just after cutting it from the tree and the taste of it raw + the inaturalist identification. So, i feel pretty confident about it. But i would like to know more, if you are suspicious about it. Maybe i should stop eating these?

    what do you think it is?






  • just a guess

    No footpaths or streets were used between the dwellings, which were clustered in a honeycomb-like maze. Most were accessed by holes in the ceiling and doors on the side of the houses, with doors reached by ladders and stairs. The rooftops were effectively streets.

    • this would protect houses from any animal that can’t climb a ladder or the wall itself (also if they pull the ladders up, from anyone who doesn’t have a portable ladder)
    • if houses are constructed in clusters, that would mean one less wall to build (maybe 2)
