Btw: Hungarian language is also changing continously. (...or: it is continously changing - the word order is not so strict in Hungarian). Even the letters was different in ancient times - originally was runic writing.

Nowadays we couldn't umderstand the ancient Hungarian neither speaking nor writing.

And last but not least the Hungarian comes from "Hun" (refer Attila the Hun, called "Whip of God), but our country's name is "Magyarország" in Hungarian, which comes grom "Magyar". This refers to an ancient myth about the Wonder Deer, and about brothers Hunor and Magor. They became tribe leaders later called Huns and Magyars.

I love folklore, and stuff like that.

Strangley, I've had two work colleagues in my small town that were learning Hungarian.

I would love to see some of the architecture one day.

You can see many Humgarian buildings, architecture, because we have a large studio "village" working on many movies and TV series (thanks to the Hungarian producer in Hollywood, the late Andy Vajna). Some of these movies' scenes was captured in Hungary from Will Smith's "Gemini men" to the new TV series "The Day of the Jackal". But I could mention Katy Perry's clip "Dark Horse" too.

Anyway these architectures seeing in person is another feeling. Good luck if you will have any opportunity to visit Hungary.
