napsz = napszámos
a poor peasant who does not have any land to cultivate, that's why he makes living on cultivating others' land for daily payment.

napszamos is a labor who is paid daily for his work (versus someone who is a laborer with a steady job). See " Diane's Hungarian Genealogy Word List"

It's probably an abbreviation. Here's a link to a Hungarian/English dictionary entry for that combination of letters. Do any of them help?
