Phonological awareness is one of the most important factors in learning to read successfully.
There has been research done on the areas and the development of phonological awareness,
mainly in an Anglo-Saxon environment. The areas correlating with successful reading have
also been investigated. The present study shows what role phonological awareness plays when
Hungarian pupils learn to read. It also compares the development of phonological awareness of
English and Hungarian pupils. We have carried out a pilot study with twenty-two first-grade pupils
with sound hearing and intellect. Our results show that there is a relation between the success
of learning to read and the development of phonological awareness. We have also found that the
order of the areas within the developmental process of phonological awareness differs in the
case of Hungarian and English pupils.
