Sir John Bowring was a Hungarian-speaking English diplomat. This is what he said about the Hungarian language in 1830: ~ The Hungarian language goes far back. It developed in a very particular manner and its structure reaches back to times, when most of the now spoken European languages did not even exist. It is a language which developed steadily and firmly in itself, and in which there is logic and mathematics with the adaptability and malleability of strength and chords. The Englishmen should be proud that his language indicates an epic of human history. One can show forth its origin; and alien layers can be distinguished in it, which gathered together during the contacts with different nations. Whereas the Hungarian language is like a rubble-stone; consisting of only one piece, on which the storms of time left not a scratch. Its not a calendar that adjusts to the changes of the ages. It needs no one, it doesnt borrow, does no buckstering, and doesnt give or take from anyone. This language is the oldest and most glorious monument of a national sovereignty and a mental independence. What scholars cannot solve, they ignore. In philosophy its the same way as archeology. The floors of the old Egyptian temples, which were made out of only one rock, cant be explained. No one knows where they came from, or from which mountain the wonderous mass was taken. How they were transported and lifted to the top of the temples. The genuineness of the Hungarian language is a phenomenon much more wonderous than this. He who solves it shall be analyzing the Divine secret; in fact the first thesis of this secret: “In the beginning there was Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” But by this time, of course, the modern understanding of Hungarian origins was already well understood. youtu.be/cHYR7vLVUmY
