Could someone tell me what is proto-magyar?Thanks.Baxter9 08:46, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

The Hungarian word megye (or Latin mega) is derived from the old Slavic word medja (međa, међа) meaning approximately territorial border.

Well, the Hungarian language contains one specific word for territorial border, and it's "mezsgye". It is pronounced approximately "mezh-gye". "Megye" which means "county" is originated from somewhere else.

Why is "county" inaccurate? This is how t he term is always translated in English. john k 03:16, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
