The Hungarian alphabet (Hungarian: magyar ábécé, pronounced [ˈmɒɟɒr ˈaːbeːt͡seː]) is an extension of the Latin alphabet used for writing the Hungarian language. The alphabet is based on the Latin alphabet , with several added variations of letters, consisting 44 letters.
The vowel phonemes of Hungarian [13]. Hungarian has seven pairs of corresponding short and long vowels.Their phonetic values do not exactly match up with each other, so e represents /ɛ/ and é represents /eː/; likewise, a represents /ɒ/ while á represents /aː/. [14]
The letters q, w, x, y are only included in the extended Hungarian alphabet and they are rarely used in Hungarian words, where they are normally replaced with their phonetic equivalents kv, v, ksz, i (only the x is relatively common, e.g. taxi). However y occurs in several native digraphs, which are treated as letters by themselves: gy, ly, ny, ty.

In Hungarian, the double acute is thought of as the letter having both an umlaut and an acute accent. Standard Hungarian has 14 vowels in a symmetrical system: seven short vowels (a, e, i, o, ö, u, ü) and seven long ones, which are written with an acute accent in the case of á, é, í, ó, ú, and with the double acute in the case of ő, ű.
Ny is the twenty-third letter of the Hungarian alphabet. Its name is eny (/ɛɲ/), and it represents the palatal nasal (/ɲ/). Even mere sequences of n and y that represent different sounds are considered instances of this letter; this holds true in acronyms as well.
