I am looking for someone living in Hungary that might be able to purchase 
some Hungarian black & white photo paper on my behalf.  Specifically, I 
am looking for a paper that is manufactured in Hungary and is called 
"Forte Elegance".  

The name and address (or phone number) of the manufacturer or a Hungarian 
distributor would be equally welcome.

Kosonom!

1995/6/17

 I'm seeking information on festivals relating to the Stars which are
held all of the world.

 My name is Satoshi Natsume living in Sendai, a city in the northern
part of JAPAN. In my city Sendai, we celebrate a big festival called
the "TANABATA MATSURI" which concerns the Stars (See below). "TANABATA
MATSURI" is our biggest festival of the year and one of the most
famous festivals in Japan. We have been holding this festival for a
long time, and the origin of this festival came from an old Japanese
custom.

 If there are any similar festivals which relate to the Stars in the
region of your country, I would really like to know about them. And I
would also like to collect information on the legend, Fairy tale,
Superstition and custom which surround your celebration of the
Stars. In particular, I am looking for information on those festivals
which are currently held or existing in certain areas.

 If anyone knows the following information (including news group,
M.L., etc.$B!K(B, please let me know. I will wait for your reply. (Any
language will be accepted)

 Many thanks in advance.
 Sincerely,

        ===================================================
        ==== August 6-8 Tanabata, Sendai downtown Area ====
        ===================================================
 Tanabata is one of the three great festivals of northern Japan. Over
2 million visitors fill the city at this time of year to see the
tanabata which decorate the city.

 Tanabata evolved from a Chinese fairy tale (with a counterpart found
in Western tradition) in which two young people fall in love. A
weaver, daughter of a celestial king,fell in love with a handsome
cowherd and they marry, but the king disliked the way she neglected
her weaving and the way he neglected his herd. So he separated them on
opposite sides of the Milky Way and decreed that they could meet only
one night a year. On that one night, a flock of magpies came together
and formed a bridge with their wings so the princess could visit her
lover. It eventually came to be believed that they could meet every
year (usually July 7th) and only if the sky was clear. If it rained,
the magpies could not make their bridge and the lovers would have to
wait another year.

 To celebrate the event, the people of Sendai hang decorations of
strip of Japanese paper and origami on bamboo poles along the streets. 
On Chuo-dori and Ichibancho huge tanabata ("star decorations") made of
paper and bamboo are hung above the streets. Slightly less
sophisticated tanabata are found on Nijunin-machi.

 There is a parade on the night of the 5th at 5:00 p.m. along
Jozenji-dori and fireworks on the night at Nishi Koen. But the
tanabata in the center of town are the main attraction. For a good
look at them, try early morning hours. But for mood, go later with the
crowds.


  ******************************
  **** TANABATA DECORATIONS ****
  ******************************

 The Tanabata Festival is most noted for its decorations and
traditionally each decoration has seven parts. The long colored-paper
streamers are called fukinagashi and they symbolize the threads which
the princess weaves all year long until she can meet her lover. A
small paper kimono, kami isho, is made by women to ask for greater
sewing skills and is also a charm against disease. Folded paper
cranes, orizuru, symbolize long life. Kinchaku, a kind of purse, is
made to bring increased wealth. Tanzaku are strip of paper on which a
poem is written, usually having to do with the Milky Way. A paper net
called toami is made to insure large catches of fish. A waste basket,
kuzukago, symbolizes the desire to save and economize.

 The more traditional tanabata can be seen in Nijunin-machi just east
of the station or in Aramachi. The more gorgeous ones along Chuo-dori
also require a lot of work and each one may cost from \150,000 on
up. Look carefully because no two are exactly alike and they are not
used again.

We don't talk about writing down word, do we ? The Hungarian 'szeretlek'
is pronounced as one word. As a matter of fact I studied to pronounce
'je t'aime' in two parts _je _ & _t'aime_ because I 've heard this way,
with small stop, in the disco (zsö teeem :) :) )

You are kidding with me, i see ,8-/ but i wrote this not. 

hazamennék - I would go home

the Hungarian expression is (spelled and written as) one, small , compact
unit. You may see the English version consists of 4 written (spelled to 3
or
4 ) words. This structure neither small nor compact. The English build 
further their sentences from such units. Usually the higher level
structure
has its own strict how-to-build-up rules. The Hungarian higher level
structure -sentence- does not have so strict arrangement rules, you are
allowed placing the units quite liberaly together as you like it.

It forces us to spell out everything so less chance that something will
be lost because of laziness.

>and on the other hand
> - the small basic words of English

That's another story: the basic vocabulary. They have more roots and they
are losing more roots as time elapses. Hungarian has less roots used
several times with slight modifications so there is less chance to lose
or change of them.

> - the compact information of a new different word in English when Hungarian

See above.

>But no, in the last centuries Hungarian has evolved no more than English
>(no less either).

I strongly question this 'no less either'. The 16th century Hungarian is
completely intelligible uses almost the same grammar of nowdays
while the English of the same age has some very german-like sentence
feature.

p.s.
Egy kis magyar a 16 századból:

"Bicsérdi Benedek, a sárvári vár porkolábja, hiti után ezt vallja, hogy
mi-
ultátul fogva ő sárvári porkoláb, százhetvenöt leánzót és asszonyállatot
vittek halva ki az asszony házából Sárvárról. Micsoda halállal holtanak
meg, azt ő nem tudhatja, mert ő különben be nem járt az asszony házá-
ban, hanem az mikor hivatta. Olyankor pedig, ha azelőtt valami volt vol-
na is, de eltisztitottak szem elöl.
Mindazonáltal egyszer látta az falt, hogy véres volt; egyébre nem gon-
dolhatja, hanem azféle megkínzott vére volt. Azt tudta, hogy kegyetle-
nül verette a leŕnyit,  úgy, hogy mikor a várat kerülte, kihallott az üté-
sének csattogása az várból az kerétésre. És egyvégben ezféle vereködés
eltartott níha hat óráig."
