Abstracts

EN

The paper is part of my dissertation research entitled Ethnolinguistic situation of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia. The paper presents the results of a comparative and content analysis of censuses and selected researches that are thematically focused on the Hungarian minority in connection with its ethnolinguistic situation in Slovakia. The paper is divided into two parts. In the first part, I will describe the language policy and language discourse that influenced the formation of the identity and language of the Hungarian minority in the Slovak Republic from beginning of Slovak republic to the present. The subject of the second part of the paper is the analysis of collected research data from censuses and selected research from 2001 to 2021. In the context of the issue, I focus on the concepts of language vitality, ethnicity, and ethnic consciousness. I describe the development, current situation, and direction of the Hungarian minority in relation to identity and language as its basic ethno-identification factor.
