Tót (plural: Tótok) (sometimes archaic spelling: Tóth or Tóthok) was a Hungarian exonym used to collectively refer to the Slavic-speaking populations in the Kingdom of Hungary, today identified as Slovaks, Slovenes and Slavonians (Croats of Slavonia). The erstwhile Hungarian name for Slavonia was Tótország (Land of the Tóts/Tóths) until the end of the 19th century.

In the 1604 lexicon by Albert Szenczi Molnár, "Tót" was defined as "Sclavus, Dalmata, Illyricus", a "Totorszag" (Tótsag) is "Dalmatia, Sclavonia, Illyrica, Illyricum" and "Totorszagi" language is "Dalmaticus", which themselves are also references to the Croats, Croatia and the Croatian language. The word became an umbrella term for Slavic-speaking peoples following Western Christian (mainly Roman Catholic) traditions living across the Kingdom of Hungary until the early 20th century (including the few Czech and Polish populations living in historical Hungary). In present-day Hungary, mainly Roman Catholic Tótok speaking South Slavic languages reside in areas west of the Danube (Transdanubia), while Tótok of Slovak origin with Catholic or Lutheran religion live in the areas east of the Danube (North Hungarian Mountains).
