Onomatopœia; Dezső Malonyay »A magyar nép művészete« [Hungarian folk art] (Budapest, 1911), vol. III, p.239, mentions a bagpipe with a second drone, which was called "Höppentyű" or "Höppögető"; According to Sárosi this statement "obviously rests on a misunderstanding", but it was adopted by Károly Viski in his »A magyarság néprajza« [Hungarian folkore] (Budapest, 1934), vol.2, p.434; NB: ➺ Höppögető.
