THE CHALLENGES OF IGAMING LOCALIZATION IN HUNGARIAN
Hungarian is an incredibly unique and hard to learn language and is extremely tricky when it comes to translations in general. Localizing websites, software and especially games of any kind is a completely new level of challenge beyond translations. The iGaming industry in Hungary is quite young and the usage of different gambling terms can be challenging.
First of all, the eternal dilemma is to use a formal or informal style. During the last couple of years, it is more and more common to communicate online with Hungarian players and people in general in an informal style, however, there are still many who may find this type of addressing too direct and even offensive. Secondly, if an informal style is used on a website with a younger audience, it is not possible to maintain that when it comes to legal texts in Terms and Conditions for example, because it would sound very unnaturally in Hungarian. This is the typical example of when some kind of “neutral” style between the two is required. In Hungary, everything is translated into Hungarian, people are not used to understanding and accept English terms, even if there is no official translation in Hungarian for an expression. Although this high level of localization is common in all industries, it took more than 10 years to get players being use to that. For example “Wild” and “Scatter” symbols in slots are not translated and are kept in English. However, it is a very thin line between perfect Hungarian sound and an English sounded mixed language, which is unnatural and awkward. Basic terms such as “Poker” and “Online Casino” should be “Póker” and “Online Kaszinó”, otherwise players can consider those foreign and strange. The growing Hungarian online gambling market is not really globalized like the Scandinavian for example, there almost everyone speaks good English. Lastly, but not least, probably the most challenging is to cut down the length of words and meanings in Hungarian in cases when space matters, The best example is a button text of “Check results”, which would be “Eredmények megtekintése”. It is easy to see that the Hungarian version is way longer and would not fit on a button or in a header of a pop-up window. Therefore, it is extremely important to get these types of expressions properly localized by a professional, who exactly knows what the meaning of that button or header text is. And most importantly: never use “Játsszon most” for “Play now” when the website is localized in informal style.At All-in Global you will find talented Hungarian translators with iGaming lingo experience. Considering that Hungarian is such a complex language we also highly recommend that you benefit of our Full-Context Review service in your localization project to make sure that everything looks and sounds exactly as it should be and consequently make your players feel at home.
