The #Hungarian #language is part of the Finno-Ugric group within the Uralic language family. It is primarily spoken in Hungary, with significant communities in Slovakia, Romania, and Yugoslavia, as well as smaller groups scattered worldwide. Hungarian is closely related to the Ob-Ugric languages, Mansi and Khanty, spoken in western Siberia. Hungarian has been written in a modified Latin alphabet since the 13th century, with its orthography stabilized in the 16th century with the advent of printing. While Hungarian has borrowed words from languages like Iranian, Turkic, Caucasian, Slavic, Latin, and German, its phonology and grammar remain characteristically Uralic.

'Sushi' Or 'Susi'? #Japan to Rethink Longstanding Romanization Rules -- "There are two broadly accepted ways to write rōmaji, the romanization of Japanese characters in the 26-letter alphabet. One is the Kunrei system, established under a cabinet ordinance in 1937, and the second is the Hepburn system, named after US missionary James Curtis Hepburn, who came to Japan in the nineteenth century and popularized its usage. With the number of visitors to Japan and foreigners living in the country increasing, a council under the Agency for Cultural Affairs has begun deliberations to unify the different writing systems with weight placed on the Hepburn system, which is in more widespread use."
