Summary "A mi édes magyar nyelvünk" by Á. Berczik is a linguistic treatise written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on the preservation and purity of the Hungarian language, arguing against the influx of foreign words and the degradation of language that this entails. Berczik draws attention to the national importance of linguistic integrity and emphasizes the role of language in expressing the nation’s identity and cultural heritage. The opening of the work sets the tone for a passionate defense of the Hungarian language, highlighting its unique character and the urgency of protecting it from foreign influences, particularly from German. Berczik expresses his concerns about the use of foreign terms over native expressions and aims to raise awareness among readers about the significance of maintaining linguistic purity. He appeals to both the educated elite and the general public to actively engage in preserving their language, particularly noting the role of women in passing this heritage to future generations. The author advocates for a balanced approach to language evolution while cautioning against excessive foreign influence and the potential loss of the language’s beauty and distinctiveness.
