Contradictory?

Under "Demographics" the number of Roma is given as 300,000. In the next line as a result of the census their number is given as 609,000. Which figure is correct? Or how is the difference explained?

Also: to my knowledge not all gipsies in Hungary are Roma. They are just the largest group. Hence the term "Roma" is regarded as an imposition by the smaller gipsy groups.

After line "In 1989, concurrently with the Revolutions of 1989, Hungary peacefully transitioned into a democratic parliamentary republic, joining the European Union in 2004 and being part of the Schengen Area since 2007.", at least a sentence should be added, such as "As of 2023, there have been concerns about democratic backsliding in Hungary under the goverment of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, with organizations such as Freedom House and the European Parliment going so far as to declare Hungary a hybrid regime. 172.101.133.244 (talk) 03:35, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Tuition-free education

'and tuition-free secondary education.' This is poorly worded/ambiguous since it might suggest that secondary education is free of tuition. I suspect it should have said tuition-fee-free but that is also clumsy. I suggest it should just say '...and free secondary education' 89.135.145.116 (talk) 07:19, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

It is also confusing because it says secondary education but links to list of universities and colleges in Hungary. Mellk (talk) 12:57, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Please change, that the standard Hungarian is based on what people speak at Budapest. It is based on what they speak in Zemplén. That's what got standardised with the language revolution. Leaving local expressions and forms behind. 2001:4C4D:1E08:3800:5424:C1FF:DE22:E5D2 (talk) 18:08, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
