This page serves as an introduction to nouns. and although it can help to read it, and the subsequent pages on nouns assume you have, his page contains no real essencial information and can be skipped.
Hungarian nouns describe things, objects, places, people, and the like. They take endings which express mainly whom they belong to, how many there are, and what their grammatical relation is to the other nouns in the sentence. All Hungarian nouns fall loosly into the same category and decline the same way. That means the endings you attach to the noun stem are the same (except for vowel harmony) and nouns do not have gender so a table is a table and is not seen as a “male” or “female” object. Similarly, the stems of nouns do not generally change (although some do).
