Editing Hungarian language (section)

===Nouns===
Nouns have 18 [[Grammatical case|cases]],<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Both|first=Csaba Attila|date=2015|title=Noun Cases of Hungarian Language in Romanian|url=https://content.sciendo.com/view/journals/ausp/6/3/article-p295.xml|journal=Philologica|volume=6|pages=297|via=Sciendo}}</ref> which are formed regularly with suffixes. The nominative case is unmarked (''az alma'' 'the apple') and, for example, the accusative is marked with the suffix ''–t'' (''az almát'' '[I eat] the apple'). Half of the cases express a combination of the source-location-target and surface-inside-proximity ternary distinctions (three times three cases); there is a separate case ending –''ból'' / ''–ből'' meaning a combination of source and insideness: 'from inside of'.

Possession is expressed by a possessive suffix on the possessed object, rather than the possessor as in English (Peter's apple becomes ''Péter almája'', literally 'Peter apple-his'). Noun plurals are formed with ''–k'' (''az almák'' 'the apples'), but after a numeral, the singular is used (''két alma'' 'two apples', literally 'two apple'; not ''*két almák'').

Unlike English, Hungarian uses case suffixes and nearly always [[preposition and postposition|postpositions]] instead of prepositions.

There are two types of [[article (grammar)|articles]] in Hungarian, definite and indefinite, which roughly correspond to the equivalents in English.
