nyugat

== Hungarian == === Etymology === From the second part of the compound word napnyugat ("sunset"). From the same, now archaic Hungarian verb nyug (“to keep quiet”), the same word from which nyugszik and nyugodt derive. This in turn derives from Proto-Finno-Ugric *ńuŋV (“to rest”). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): [ˈɲuɡɒt] Hyphenation: nyu‧gat Rhymes: -ɒt === Noun === nyugat (usually uncountable, plural nyugatok) (singular only) west Coordinate terms: dél, észak, kelet ==== Usage notes ==== Names of compass points are not capitalized in Hungarian unless they refer to a given bloc of countries or states or to the literary periodical of the early 20th century, or when they are part of a proper name (e.g. Nyugat-Szahara). However, their abbreviations are capitalized and have no dot at the end. (The dotted forms are the abbreviations of the related adjectives suffixed with ‑i.) ==== Declension ==== ==== Coordinate terms ==== compass points: égtájak: [edit] ==== Derived terms ==== ==== References ==== === Further reading === nyugat in Géza Bárczi, László Országh, et al., editors, A magyar nyelv értelmező szótára [The Explanatory Dictionary of the Hungarian Language] (ÉrtSz.), Budapest: Akadémiai Kiadó, 1959–1962.
