    I realize that you made this video 5 years ago but you are the third person teaching Hungarian phrases that I've seen on UA-cam and you are the best. You took the time to explain why the letters make the sounds that they do. The others taught the same phrases but they didn't explain how and why the "sz" made an "S" sound in English and how the "gy" made the sound that it did. As an older American trying to learn a new language, it isn't easy but trying to learn a language that is as difficult as Hungarian is truly difficult. Your teaching method was excellent. I am looking forward to checking out more of your videos. Thank you very much.

    I can speak a decent amount of Italian and a little bit of German, mostly from college and duolingo, but I decided to have some fun with Hungarian because training your mind to understand more difficult languages makes it easier to learn others. That last phrase is...insane. I cannot say that phrase, I don't even know what sound you're making, no matter how many times I hear it. I keep thinking "Hogey vogey" haha. Thank you, though, this video was very helpful. I did the first few lessons on duolingo and I was so lost, so i came here and I think I have a bit of a grasp as to what I'm doing.

    I found your channel "by coincidence" because i have a hungarian-ukrainian friend which i talk in czech-slovakian language to (ok, i know sounds weird, but he did work in Bratislava/Slowakia a long time) and I am a german, speaking czech, slovak & partially PL/RU .
    My intention to "have a look how to learn hungarian" is because i am really looking forward to move to Hungaria so it will be necessary to speak the language. You definitely gained a new follower today :)

    The lessons you have presented had allowed me to practice Hungarian language on our first visit. And although my ability is very limited, people in Hungary were very nice in allowing me not to be afraid of making mistakes speaking.
    My goal for 2022 is to attempt using more sentence structure. I'm looking forward to more video lessons. Koszonom!

    Lived in Budapest nearly 50 years ago and love it. Went there with 8 other couples a few years ago for a River cruise. We all had dinner at me favorite restaurant on the Fisherman Bastion, the Alabordos. Hope I spelt it correctly. Anyway it was magical. Visited the market and had goulash and sausage. I’d love to go back again. I appreciate so much more in my old age than in my youth when I took so much for granite. Truly one of the most beautiful cities and people in Europe.

    You did a very nice job, I am learning Magyarul for over 3 years now and I love the language (and the country). The sound is like music to my ears. It's not an easy language for sure, but very interesting just because not everyone does understand or speak it. I often git asked why at all I am learning Hungarian and I always say, everyone learns French or Spanish and there are so may who speak it, but to learn Hungarian is so unusual it surprises people and that sets you apart. I also found Hungarian people are really helpful when you are trying to speak their language, it brings meeting people to a whole different level to know their language. So, well done, ügyes vagy és üdv Dublinban. Szép hétvégee kívánok neked. :-)

    I'm currenrly learning phrases and words via Dualingo :) Glad that I found your vids. They will be extra helpful! I'm from Finland so I kinda got curious about Hungarian language and it's been fun to learn phrases these last two days since I started 😂 Ones I remember best are Hogy Vagy? Jó reggelt kívánok. Közönöm szépen. Nem jól vagyok. Nem jól vagy. Igen and etc.

    I'm not sure why I'm seeing comments comparing it to Polish. Maybe there's similarity in the phonology or the accent, but Hungarian is actually of no relation to Polish, belonging to the Uralic language family, which isn't even part of the Indo-European family tree. Its closest relations are Finnish and Estonian.
    On a side note, it's cool that I actually knew these already. My grandmother is grew up in a Magyar community, and her parents spoke Magyar when they didn't want her to understand them. The first German phrase that I learned was "Hogy van," and she was more familiar with it than "Hogy vagy."

    • @emmamemma4162
      @emmamemma4162 5 років тому +1

      Languages are also influenced by nearby languages, they get new words, change their pronunciation etc...so it is only natural that Hungarian share some sounds with Slavic languages. I know Finnish and to me Hungarian has many sounds not found in the Finnish language (like B and those crazy S-sounds). Some of the grammatical features like the vocal harmony, declination of the nouns and the absence of grammatical gender and gender-specific pronouns are quite easy to grasp after studying Finnish, but I do not understand a word of written or spoken Hungarian.

Can anyone out there have any suggestions?

Now at 51 I'm trying to simultaneously learn Polish and Russian! Your video is very helpful!!!
