It looks like that. We lived at Almasi ter 8 third floor. The school was on the other side of the square. I remember that most of the time it was very cold. Coal was scarce.

I have just come back from an inspection tour of Turkey.
My associate there tells me Turkish is a derived language of Hungarian-Finnish.
Certainly, the language does not sound Arabic to me, nor do the Turks lookm Arab; but not quite European either.
There are similarities between Hungarian and Turkish, but Hungary was 150 years under Turkish conquest, so it is not clear how the languages relate. A Hungarian cannot understand Turkish.
You may be interested to see my webpages concerning the Budapest Ghetto, the Glass House and a profile of some of the diplomats and members of the clergy who saved thousands of Jewish lives in 1944-1945. Please see http://www.budapestvacationservice.com/budapest_ghetto_1944-1945.html and follow the links out from there.
