Lots Of Household And Other Appliances Made By Hungarian Inventors
Change language:
A day of a Hungarian – A Hungarian man saw a TV commercial about his homeland and then decided to use only Hungarian inventors’ gadgets. Indeed, there are lots of household and other appliances made by Hungarian inventors– gyartastrend.hu reported.
According to gyartastrend.hu website, this man picked a biro-pen (invented by László Biró in 1931) and wrote “Inventive Hungarians” down a paper and put it on the fridge – which was invented by the Hungarian Leó Szilárd in 1929 – with a magnet. His sight was not perfect, so he used contact lenses. At first he hesitated to use the old type of lens (invention of József Dallos in 1928) or the soft new ones which were invented by István Győrffy in 1959. Then he lit a cigarette using matches invented by János Irinyi in 1836. While he was thinking about his daily routine he was listening to music on the CD player. He was watching the hologram sticker (Dénes Gábor invented it in 1947) on the CD cover and then he took a vitamin C, an excellent medicine of the Hungarian Albert Szentgyörgyi (1931). A friend of him came into his mind, so he called him on the phone (invention of Tivadar Puskás, 1878). As he had some time before leaving his home, he sat down to use the computer –invented by János Neumann in 1944 – and started to play. He was wondering about which system to use but finally he decided to use the Basic Computer (invented by János Kemény, 1964) and organized his tasks in MS Excel sheet – which is a useful invention of Károly Simonyi from 1974.
Actually he wanted to watch a 3D movie but unfortunately, he couldn’t watch it although he had special 3D glasses designed for these types of films. These modern 3D glasses were invented by Dániel Rátai three years ago. So he played a vinyl disk on his traditional CD player (invented by Károly Goldmark in 1948) and he switched the TV on as well (invented by Dénes Mihály in 1919). In the program there was a popular science film about New York City. He was happy to have colored television (thanks to Károly Goldman who invented it in 1948) and was able to watch the film. He liked the city, especially the Central Park. Interestingly, the Central Park and the development plans of the city were realized by the works of Sándor Asbóth in the 1850’s. Later he watched another scientific movie about space research and he was amazed to watch the moon rover which is a great invention of Ferenc Pávlics from the sixties. Before leaving home he tried to put together the famous Rubik Cube (invented by Ernő Rubik in 1976).
Hungarians or actually the Magyars are very talented peoples. The world just doesn’t know who we are because of our language, which is totally unique and very descriptive. Often we are mistaken for Germans or Slavs which is terribly erroneous. We are proud peoples but for some reason aren’t helpful to each other in foreign lands. we also have terrible luck. Hungarians have been sandwiched between two large bullies, Russia and Germany as well as Austria. But we persevere and keep going on. Hollywood has many Hungarian actors, directors and composers whom were very famous but frequently they were unknown as Hungarians.
