Some of the basic European nationalities and countries in Hungarian that appear to be regular to learn or to practice. Or to learn and practice. 🙂
With regular country and nationality names, the root comes from the name of the nationality. Then, there are 2 types of regularly formed country names:
1. Group one: nationality +ország / +föld (like magyar – Magyarország, thai – Thaiföld)
2. Group two: nationality +ia (like szír – Szíria)
Let’s start with figuring out what these nationalities in Hungarian translate to in English.
Now, let’s see how many words you can find in this game! You get the hints, but the words can go into any direction, back and forth, up and down.
With this exercise, let’s practice if you can remember how to form the country name from these nationalities. Write „ország” or „ia” at the end of the words and check your response instantly!
Let’s sum up the words you’ve learned on this sheet.
