    The English word ‘speaker’ has multiple meanings. In Hungarian, there is a different word for a speaker device that casts sound (hangszóró, “sound caster”) and Speaker of the House of Parliament (házelnök, “president of the house”).

    Still, when googling one, you may get results for the other. 🤷

      That moment when you realize Google might be translating searches into English before doing a “sounds like”.

      Swedish: högtalare, “high talker”, pretty much “loudspeaker”.
