Körtvélyes község nyelvi tájképének és a lakosság helynévismeretének kapcsolata
The Relationship Between the Linguistic Landscape of the Village of Körtvélyes (Hrušov) and the Knowledge of Local Place-Names by the Population

Summary/Abstract: My thesis is in line with my previous research, which focuses on the linguistic landscape and the name semiotic landscape, bilingualism and place-name research and its utility. The present paper is also based on this theme, and aims to present one aspect of the research conducted in a selected village in the Rožňava district. In the literature review, I will therefore discuss the above-mentioned concepts, explaining them in order to make the results more interpretable. I will then describe the location of the research, Hrušov, and the methods used in the research. The aspect on the basis of which I will examine this research in this paper is the relationship between linguistic landscape, bilingualism and knowledge of place-names. Thus, in presenting the results, I will describe the possible relationship between the name semiotic landscape, bilingualism, and knowledge and use of place names. n the conclusion, I would like to point out the importance of the name semiotic landscape and the importance of preserving Hungarian place-names.
