Fejedelem comes from "fej" which means head. So he was the "head" of Hungarians, but it's translated as Grand Prince. One more interesting thing about translation of queen (if it wasn't a topic already). We have two names for queen: 1: királynő - she is the ruler of the kingdom 2: királyné - she is the wife of the king.

The translation I heard for Fejedelem is actually Petty King, which is more typical in the Eraly Middle Ages, compared to the High Ages, where the same titles would have been called Duke, Grand Duke, or maybe Prince.

It is difficult to translate these to English. For example in Hungarian the grand duchies of Lithuania and Kiev were Litván /Kijevi Nagyfejedelemség, but the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is Luxemburgi Nagyhercegség. Herceg comes from the German Herzog, meaning prince/duke (they also have Prinz that means prince). On that note, the principalities of Monaco and Liechtenstein are also called Monacói/Liechtensteini Hercegség. Petty kings are also translated to Hungarian as kiskirály (quite the literal translation, as kis means small or little), fejedelem is also translated to English as chieftain, so it's a mess. Regarding the two names for queens, English have this as well, királynő is queen regnant and királyné is queen consort. We don't have names for queen regents and queen mothers though.

A Jácint, és a Nárcisz azért fiúnevek, mert az eredetüket magyarázó görög mítoszokban férfi szereplőkhöz kötődnek. A Rózsa és Ibolya esetében az jutott az eszembe, hogy egyes helyeken vannak uniszex (fiú- és lánynév is lehet) nevek. Angol nyelvterületen ezek töbnyire rövidült becenevek melyek fiú- és lánynevek rövidülései is lehetnek, pl.: a Vicky a Victor és a Victoria változata is lehet. A finneknél a (napjainkban meglehetősen ritka) finn nyelvű köznevek, amelyeket névként is használnak (olyanokat jelentenek, mint göndörnyír, remény, hóvihar, szerény, stb) jellemzően nem szigorúan fiú- vagy lány nevek, pl.: a Kaino (szerény, szemérmes) inkább lánynév, de fiúk is kapják. Ma a magyar törvények tiltják az uniszex nevek anyakönyveztetését, de valószínűleg a köznévi eredetűek között voltak korábban ilyenek. Egyébként a rózsa nem csak virág, hanem egy szívós, tüskés cserje is, így nem is olyan nehéz férfinévként elképzelni.

So parents started to send their children to these religious institutes in the hope of higher quality education and they try to demonstrate their loyalty by giving such christian names that were never ever used anywhere else in our culture but in the Bible only :D

"Fejeledelem" is usually translated as "prince" (like the monarch of Andorra), they don't have a distinguished expression in English. King St. Stephen's father Géza had that title from 972 to 997 AD. Some theories say "Géza" is coming from "Jesse" (since it's referred so in a few Greek or Latin documents about some of the Hungarian leaders named Géza, like the prince mentioned here or the two kings who came later). On the other hand, if we accept another theory (which is not a fact, despite some historians try to state so), that says it's King Géza, I. on our Holy Crown, then his name must come from a Turkish title called "Jeovicha" (it's also something like "prince"), since it's written as "Geobitzas" in Greek on the Crown's picture. I could go out on a limb and say that the name Szilárd may have the same etymology as the English word "solid", what's interesting is that its equivalent of some southern Slavic language is "Tvrtko", like the name of the reporter whose birth name was "Szilárd". Emese originally means "mother" and it's still used for some female animals in the form of "emse".

Such nice people, lovely video. One thing that came to my mind from uni is the “K-R” consonant pair which is allegedly a very ancient thing that appears in many different languages and often signifies an enclosed area rounded physically or by a certain rule etc. Like “kör” = “cirkle”, “korona” = “crown”, “király” (king), “kert” (garden), “kerítés” (fence), and so on. I wonder if “Károly” = “Charles” is related to this ancient “K-R” / “CH-R” pairs too… 🤔
@Cydonius1701
Ай бұрын
Yep, there are *so* many words with a k-r root in the Indo-European languages, and loaned into other families. It also appears to be frequent in unrelated roots too, e.g. the kör/ker lineage in Finno-Ugric languages. I wonder if it's just that it's easy to say so crops up a lot, or if there's some onomatopoeia there (like imitating the sound of something cracking or being cut through)? 'Kard' (sword) comes from the same source too IIRC. Király, Károly and Charles all come from the Germanic name Karl, the meaning of király comes from Karl der Große/Carolus Magnus/Charlemagne via an earlier Slavic language, while the two names come from Latin Carolus (Charles via French). BUT: Karl comes from an earlier root beginning with 'g', not 'k'. Look up "Grimm's Law" / "Erste Lautverschiebung" / "Első germán hangeltolódás" for details 🙂

This video is wrong even in the title. In Hungarian the family name comes first (just like in the Japanese, Vetnamese, Chinese...etc) and then the given name. But when we speak a forigner in a forign language we expect that most of the forigner don't know that in our names the surname comes first and the gien name after so in the introduction we automaticaly say our names changed.

Last year somebody wanted to name their child "sausage" (kolbász). Thanks God in this country the office stops this kind of stupidity. The main directive is if a name has origin of a traditionally male or female name in any recognized culture, from the ancient Hungarian to Arabian or Latin, for example, then that can be acknowledged. BUT only by the Hungarian spelling rules. So there isn't Caroline here, only Karolina. No Jessica, only Dzsesszika. The rule makers try to restrict the "fashion names" and the strange influence, to protect our unique language. Many parents do not consider the name as a life long cattle-brand of their beloved child. If I were a young boy who is named as Sausage I would be very unhappy and shameful. This is not a game. Károly leads back to Karol (or Karel) in Slavic languages, so it's close to Carol but at this case the Carol is the cuckoo's egg, Carolus is a very old male name in Latin.

Tünde is a mistranslation in LOTR. It sounds nice but elves are not fairies. That's what the translator did not understand, so they put in something that sounded nice. Actually, in Hungarian we use the word elf for the kind of elves in LOTR. It is elf/elfek meaning elf/elves it's just rare. That's why I only watched it in original. In the end they speak fluent Hungarian, yes. But I couldn't understand a word. Still, kudos for learning it! Also, fun fact Stephen Fry had a Hungarian grandfather. 😉

I wouldn't say its was a mistranslation, as it is deliberate. Elves originally are small magical and usually mischievous creatures from old folk tales (manó in Hungarian). Well, Tolkien's elves are significantly different, so they tried to use a different word for them as manó would sound a bit comical. So they chose to make a common noun from the given name Tünde (which is a made up name from the word tündér, meaning fairy, as you said). Another layer might be that the name is strongly associated to the concept of beauty via the character of Vörösmarty, but this is pure speculation on my part. Nowadays the English elf has also seeped into Hungarian, but the term is still not used exclusively.

The Frank king in Hungarian: Nagy Károly, nagy means big, great. Nagy Péter: Peter the great, the Russian tsar, Nagy Frigyes (Friedrich, the great) the Prussian king, etc. The first name in Hungarian is the second after the family name, it is the so called Oriental name order, like in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Mongol etc. For example John Carter = Kocsis János. Mao Tse-tung: Mao is the family name, Kurosawa Akira: Kurosawa is the family name (in English texts became Akira Kurosawa).
Ben Afleck's second name is also Géza. 😊

The very first king (transition from the last Grand Prince) of Hungary was István (Stephen) around 1000. He was also canonized by the Catholic Church, which means he is officially a saint. Szent István király. His influence is how Hungary became a Roman Catholic country. Templom (church) and Pap (priest sounds like Pope), are words brought in for example.
