'''Hungarian''', or '''Magyar''' ({{Lang|hu|magyar nyelv|italic=yes}}, {{IPA|hu|ˈmɒɟɒr ˈɲɛlv|pron|audio=Hu-magyar nyelv.ogg}}), is an [[Ugric language]] of the [[Uralic language]] family spoken in [[Hungary]] and parts of several neighboring countries. It is the [[official language]] of Hungary and one of the 24 official languages of the European Union. Outside Hungary, it is also spoken by [[Hungarians|Hungarian communities]] in southern [[Slovakia]], western [[Ukraine]] ([[Zakarpattia Oblast|Transcarpathia]]), central and western [[Romania]] ([[Transylvania]]), northern [[Serbia]] ([[Vojvodina]]), northern [[Croatia]], northeastern [[Slovenia]] ([[Prekmurje]]), and eastern [[Austria]] ([[Burgenland]]).

It is also spoken by [[Hungarian diaspora]] communities worldwide, especially in North America (particularly the [[Hungarian Americans|United States]] and [[Canada]]) and [[Israel]]. With 14&nbsp;million speakers, it is the Uralic family's most widely spoken language.<ref name="Hungarian Speakers">{{Cite web |title=Hungarian Learning Community and Resources: How many people speak Hungarian? |url=https://academy.europa.eu/mod/page/view.php?id=18586&lang=en |access-date=2024-01-22 |website=academy.europa.eu}}</ref>
