Origins of Hungarian wine-making
Of all the languages spoken in Europe today, only two have their own words for wine that are not derived from Latin: Greek and Hungarian. Records carved in a Runic alphabet used by ancient Hungarians (Magyars) are evidence of an early terminology related to wine which entered the language as Turkic loan words.
