Typing Hungarian on your keyboard

The Hungarian QWERTZ layout has a dedicated key for every accented vowel. á é í ó ö ő ú ü ű all sit on the board, mostly to the right of the letter block. Nothing needs a dead key or AltGr. The whole problem is the English or US-International layout, where ő and ű are simply impossible, so use the Alt codes (0245/0251), the ABC. Extended double-acute dead key on Mac, or the copy buttons here.
