Turkish words in the Hungarian language
There are many little apples in my pocket.

Hungarians were in contact with Turkish groups during some thousands of years, they had always relation in the period of the migration. Later on, the Turkish Empire has expanded until the Hungarian border and finally has occupied the half of the country and Turkish have stayed for 150 years in the medieval ages. Hence are a lot of Turkish words in the Hungarian language, however the two languages have different origins ! Cumans (Kunok in Hungarian, Kipçak or Kumanlar in Turkish) a turkic tribe was settled down in Hungary by the Hungarian Kings in the middle ages after and during the Mongol onslaught. Before them many others lived or found refuge in Hungary like the Petchenegs, Avars.
