Abstract

In this paper, we deal with the word lektórium ‘lectorium’. The word, of Neo-Latin origin, had ecclesiastical connotations in the Hungarian language, and denoted the sanctuary of the early Christian church. In Transcarpathian Hungarian language varieties, on the other hand, the word lektórium was known and used as a Russian development as one of the most important tools of Soviet party propaganda dissemination, as the equivalent of Hungarian “social education” groups.
