The pengő was subdivided into 100 fillér. Although the introduction of the pengő was part of a post-World War I stabilisation program, the currency survived for only 20 years and experienced the most serious hyperinflation ever recorded. ==Name== The Hungarian participle ''pengő'' means 'ringing' (which in turn derives from the verb ''peng'', an onomatopoeic word equivalent to English 'ring') and was used from the 15–17th century to refer to silver coins making a ringing sound when struck on a hard surface, thus indicating their precious metal content. (The onomatopoeic word used for gold coins is ''csengő'', an equivalent of English 'clinking' meaning a sharper sound; the participle used for copper coins is ''kongó'' meaning a deep pealing sound.) After the introduction of forint paper money in Hungary, the term ''pengő forint'' was used to refer to forint coins literally meaning 'ringing forint', figuratively meaning 'silver forint' or 'hard currency'.〔 () (info on the etymology of the word ''pengő'')〕 At the beginning of the First World War precious metal coins were recalled from circulation, and in the early 1920s all coins disappeared because of the heavy inflation of the Hungarian korona. The name ''pengő'' was probably chosen to suggest stability. However, there was some controversy when choosing the name of the new currency, though the majority agreed that a Hungarian name should be chosen. Proposals included ''turul'' (a bird from Hungarian mythology), ''turán'' (from the geographical name and ideological term Turan), ''libertás'' (the colloquial name of the poltura coins issued by Francis II Rákóczi), and ''máriás'' (the colloquial name of coins depicting Mary, patroness of Hungary). The denomination of the banknotes was indicated in the languages of ethnicities living in the territory of Hungary. The name of the currency was translated as follows: ''Pengö'' (pl. ''Pengö'') in German, ''pengő'' (pl. ''pengi'') in Slovak, ''пенгов'' (pl. ''пенгова'') in Cyrillic script Serbo-Croatian, ''пенгыв'' (pl. ''пенгывов'', later ''пенге'') in Rusyn, and ''pengő'' (pl. ''pengei'', later ''penghei'') in Romanian. Later ''pengov'' (pl. ''pengova''), the Latin script Serbo-Croatian version was also added. The symbol of the pengő was P and it was divided into 100 fillér (symbol: f). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hungarian pengő」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
