Individuals and teams from 38 countries competed, and this year 11th grader Máté Gergely Virág (Eötvös József High School) and Rudolf Virág (Budapest Fazekas Mihály High School), who graduated this year, each won a medal, the HUN-REN Linguistics Research Center said on Saturday.

Tasks involved working out the operating principle of five rare languages, such as Koryak of Chukotko-Kamchatkan language family and Yanyuwa of the Australian Aboriginal Pama–Nyungan family, while teams were given a lexicostatistical task.
