Hangváltozásától

"Hangváltozásától" is a Hungarian term that translates to "from the change of vowel" in English. It refers to a specific phonetic phenomenon in the Hungarian language, where the pronunciation of a vowel can change depending on the following consonant. This process is known as vowel harmony, which is a common feature in many Uralic languages, including Hungarian.

In Hungarian, vowel harmony operates on a front-back scale. The vowels are divided into two sets: front vowels (e, é, i, í, ö, ő, ü, ű) and back vowels (a, á, o, ó, u, ú). When a word contains a front vowel, any following vowels must also be front. Similarly, if a word contains a back vowel, any following vowels must also be back. This rule applies to all vowels in the word, including those that are not pronounced.

For example, in the word "kép" (picture), the vowel "e" is front, so the following vowel "p" is also front. In the word "kápolna" (chapel), the vowel "á" is back, so the following vowel "o" is also back. This phenomenon is known as "hangváltozásától" because it involves a change in the pronunciation of the vowel based on the following consonant.

Vowel harmony is a complex and important aspect of Hungarian phonology, and it plays a crucial role in the language's grammar and morphology. It is also a key feature that distinguishes Hungarian from other languages in the Uralic family.
