On his visit he was with researchers Judit Nagy, professor of Philology English and vice dean for international affairs; Ildikó Schmidt, senior lecturer in Hungarian Linguistics and an expert in multilingualism; and Imre János, Full Professor Hungarian Linguistics and also a specialist in multilingualism.

"We will also invite our Hungarian colleagues to participate in a collective work that we want to publish in 2023," he says.
