Harminc

Harminc is the Hungarian word for the number thirty. It is a cardinal numeral used in counting and in expressions that specify a quantity or a duration.

In everyday language, harminc appears in phrases such as harminc nap (thirty days), harminc év (thirty years), and harminc százalék (thirty percent). It also functions as the tens component when forming larger numbers and is used in dates and measurements. For example, the year 1930 can be written out as ezerkilencszázharminc.

Grammatically, harminc is a base numeral that combines with nouns to form phrases indicating quantity. Like other Hungarian numerals, it generally precedes the noun and the noun carries any required case endings; the numeral itself does not normally take inflection in simple quantitative phrases. The ordinal form of thirty is harmincadik, as in harmincadik nap (the thirtieth day).

Etymologically, harminc is part of the native Hungarian numeral system. Its use is confined to Hungarian-language contexts, and it is not a loanword in common usage. Beyond its role as a number, harminc may appear in numerical expressions across mathematics, finance, calendars, and everyday speech, where clear quantification is required.
