Not really Hungarian. This is how I prefix variables, Database Table columns and how I abbreviate common words in my apps (this is an Abr).
prefixes are application oriented. No language specific datatypes (int32, word
etc)
prefixes are the same cross language. Each programming language used in a
project should have the same name for the same variable (eg SQL, C#, Javascript)
Prefixes for variables (& Table Columns)

I think it is reasonable if there is a possibility to use pointers.
