Summary/Abstract: In our study, we examine the written language use of Hungarian of university students in Austria who have Hungarian as a heritage language and who take Hungarian courses as part of foreign language education. We conduct a detailed analysis of their writing samples to identify and systematize the morphological and morphosyntactic phenomena that characterize their use of written Hungarian. Understanding these linguistic features may later contribute to the development of effective language pedagogy and teaching methods to support the successful education of this specific target group.
