This article is a reaction to the paper published by a team of Hungarian linguists concerning the Slovak language law. In the opinion of V. Krupa and S. Ondrejovi language planning and language policy can and often is influenced not only by explicit legal means but also by implicit and much less transparent measures. The latter may sometimes cause more serious difficulties to linguistic (or ethnic) minorities than explicit laws that are much easier to criticize. When judging language laws, one has to take into account not only their wording but also their implementation in everyday life
