Hovorili viacerými jazykmi. Niektorí mali slovenské korene, iní maďarské či nemecké. Neboli len bojovníci, ale aj úradníci a vzdelanci. Ich identita bola iná než dnes. Najdôležitá pre nich bola vernosť kráľovi, rodine a pôde.Summary: What to RememberThe nobles in what is now Slovakia were part of the Kingdom of Hungary. They spoke several languages. Some had Slovak roots, others Hungarian or German. They were not only warriors, but also officials and scholars. Their identity was different from today’s. The most important thing for them was loyalty to the king, family and land.Timestamps00:35 Introduction to the lesson02:25 Answering the questions about the nobility in Upper Hungary 04:17 Fun fact 105:47 Fun fact 208:53 Slovak lesson15:46 Sentences19:27 Summary21:02 Final thoughtsIf you have any questions, send it to my email [email protected].
