They are even easier to love when you’re Polish.
-speaks Hungarian
-loves stocked potato
-asking for pancakes
Yup he's officially hungarian...
A nice video about Hungary:
All the Hungarians:👀
I love HUNGARY great country and beautiful language greetings from CROATIA !
Thank you! We love you too brothers!
Croatians and Hungarians=bratstvo
Many foreigners find it suprising, but asking 'how are you?' is not included in the regular greetings here. So if you ask it, chances are high, that you will really get an answer for it.
Imagine a random person coming to you asking for a pancake. xd
Hungarians are natural leaders and have unshakable strong convictions. It's very admirable.
Love from an Englishman
I lived in Budapest and l loved my time there. I am Canadian in Toronto now . Szep orszag gyonyoru varos
Wow, that HELYES - HELL YES parallel was pretty funny
Hungarians don't look at "How are you?" as part of the greeting. They treat it as a real question. It actually makes Hungarians feel a bit puzzled if you ask "How are you?" without actually wanting to know the answer. Köszi a szép üzenetet a végén!
I was born in Los Angeles and grew up in Toronto but my parents were from Budapest (Mom) and Kecskemet (Dad). I have visited Budapest twice and Kecskemet and Csevharaszt once but have never actually lived in Hungary. I can cook Hungarian foods because I learned at my mother's elbow growing up and I'm fluent in Hungarian! Believe it or not I have 5 siblings who can't cook the food and really don't speak the language although they understand a little bit. You are way more conversant in Hungarian than they are! Your pronunciation is very good... and I'm really impressed! I'm proud of my Hungarian heritage and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your beautiful description of Magyarország and her people... Hungarians everywhere will love you for that! And yes! it makes you family! :) Köszönöm szépen minden kedves dolgot, amit mondott egy szívből kedves országról.
Örülök hogy kis országunkba ilyen jó élményeket szereztél !!
Olyan szépeket mondtál, hogy elkezdtek potyogni a könnyeim a meghatottságtól.
I can relate to the "moment vs pancake" thing heavily. I was at a sushi place and I meant to say "szeretnék kérni a számlát" but I instead said "szeretnék kérni a számát" so it was a little awkward when I said that to the waitress, especially in front of my girlfriend
My boyfriend is Hungarian, this is all so right! I love going to Hungary, the people are so lovely and it's such a beautiful country
Always love to see some people from other nations that truly apreciate good people in this part of europe. Greetings to my neighbors in Hungary from Romania with much love!
I really like Hungary, really beautiful countryside. Greetings from Germany! :)
God bless you friendly American! You are more than welcome in Hungary!
Na tessék, mi azon csodálkozunk, hogy máshol tücsköt, bogarat esznek, vagy osztrigát, neki meg a halászlé volt furcsa :) minden csak megszokás kérdése
LOL, hahaha, "Budapest, the main... um the capitol..." - That's a clear sign of thinking in Hungarian!
The mirror translation of the Hungarian word for "capitol" is "main city" :D
I'm Hungarian live in canada. My homesick never goes away. Thank you for this beautiful video. We always welcome good people like you in our hearts and homes.
Dang, it actually made me emotional. I love how you managed to find the true face of our little nation.
We literally have festivals and celebration days for everything.
Wine festival
Lecsó festival
Paprika festival
Falu nap (Village day)
*City name* napok ( City days)
Majális (May 1st celebration and usually like a fun fair)
And like a thousand more but just of the top of my head.
I think it's a really big part of our culture but it's also an excuse to get drunk
I still can't get over how he called kocsonya meat jello lmao
Being a Hungarian, the last few words to our people really made me emotional
Thank you for the kind words! Köszönjük!
Nice to see a young man with international experience speaking in superlatives of my country. Such open-minded souls shall always be welcome in Hungary. Thank you for your honest video.
Székesfehérvár gets its name from time past long ago when the Hungarian kings governed from this city.
Székes= throne, from where the king brings his important decisions. Fehérvár=white castle.
So the way I would explain the name of Székesfehérvár; the White Castle of the Throne.
The Hungarian Anthem's first verse translates to something like this:
God, bless the Hungarian
With joy and fullness
Give them a protecting hand
When they fight enemies
Who has hurt from poor fate,
Give them a happy year
These people had suffered
For the past and the future.
This is a really sad anthem, compared to most of the other anthems.
The anthem is not about being proud of what we achived, and how great we are. It's about that hungary was a lot of times the country that was used by others. The Austrian, the Turkish and a lot of people fought Hungary, we took a lot of fights, and we lost so much. As you said the anthem is more of a prayer, to finally let us be, and not to take more of our land and population.
Hungary is really deep and less patriotic than a lot other countries. We don't wear Red-White-Green flags on our clothes.(Except for football fans, but they usually do it for their team than their country). We have a lot of patriotic songs. And most of them are really depressing, and more of a hoping styled. And the other half is something not much of people listen to and i don't neither.
Story Time
We had a really patriotic teacher, and we were you know the 2003-2005 generation kids, and no one listens to hungarian songs. And she was like no, we're going to listen to hungarian songs, even if you don't like them. Let's say her teaching practics weren't much useful, and her existence was pain for us.
And there was me who reestablished communism in a christian school.
Jajj de csodálatos ember vagy! Köszönöm neked, olyan gyönyörű dolgokat mondtál, nagyon meghatott. Üdvözöllek Magyarországról!!!
Yeah, in Hungary you don't ask somebody how they are unless you want to know the answer - it's NOT interchangeable with simply saying hello.
The last words made me cry 💕😭 Thank you: a grateful Hungarian
The best Land in the World. I live in Hungary.
That was nice,thank you,your Hungarian is so good.Greetings from Hungary!
:):):):):):):) One of the kindest description about Hungarians. Thank you very much for your love and kindness :):)
Canadian/Italian here, 3 years living in Hungary.................. compared to what my family and I are used too with the Canadian/Italian culture to Hungarian it is very different. Possibly in Budapest the people may or may not be as what the person described them as,in this video, but in the small little village we live the people are far from what we are used to. I think the best way to describe the Hungarian people is they are like beautiful peacock when they extend the feathers but with cactus thorns on the outside, very difficult to get close too without getting pricked. Over time, I have come to understand the history of the beautiful country and how big it once was and how it was taken from them 70% of their beautiful country taken from them after WWII. Can you imagine. So sad 😞
Hungary is very!very! beautiful country. Great astonishing weather. Dry heat, dry winters, not like Canadian weather it may be 21 outside with 100% humidity. Once a person has the chance of meeting a Hungarian and really listening to them with the amazing stories they pridefully share, once we pass the cactus thorns they really are amazing people. Thank you for the experience. ☺️☺️
Congrats for the pronounciation of Székesfehérvár! That was perfect 🙂
"Hell yes!" = Helyes. I'am crying now... :D :D :D
Really funny, how other peoples looking us. Great video!
Oh my glory. I am Hungarian and never heard that kind words from other nation. Thank you so much, you touched my soul. Hope you will experience more beatifull things in Hungary, but I have to mention that, the kindness of the Hungarians is always the same what they get from a person, in your case, from you. So you should thank for yourself too.
(Sorry for my English)
Thanks again! It was a pleasure to watch that video.
the sweet words in the end made me cry. You are the part of the family :D
Szia Levi! Én még ennél meghatóbb videót életemben nem láttam! Látszik, hogy a szívedből szólsz! Ezért a szívűnkhöz szóltál! Lehet érezni a szeretet a szavaidban! NAGYON örülök neki, hogy ennyire szeretsz minket! Mi is nagyon szeretünk téged és kedves családodat! Nagyon szépen beszélsz magyarul!
Köszönöm szépen!
(most a felkiáltójel jót jelent 😄) Szép napot kívánok! 👋
Love Hungarian people, the country and Budapest is great ... from an Englishman
Your Hungarian is really good!!! Hungarians love you!!!
"You can find the most fun things and exciting things in grocery stores"
Me, a Hungarian who goes to at least one of them regularly: -Boy it hurts to be this hip!
As a hungarian i never tought that we are seen like that. Im one who always wanted to get away from Hungary. Kind of feeling touched by the whole vid now and starting to see what are the good things even i enjoy...
19:25 How dare you make me feel so emotional TwT. This is literally the kindness thing a non-hungarian ever told me. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay here :)
So nobody's gonna talk about Hide the pain Harold?
He is Hungarian and his real name is Arató András.
Isten áldjon meg téged is, Testvérem!!!
"fun and happy beautiful ppl"
magyar mentalítás has left the chat
dude, this made my day :) you seem like a great person and it feels so good to see that you are genuinely interested in Hungary and you are very prepared about us :) the part where you spoke hungarian sent chills down my spine :) thank you for this emotionally upbeat video, brother :)
Gellérthegy - translated to Gellért Hill. "Hegy" doesn't mean size. There is no difference between high and short "hegy" in Hungarian, because this word refers to it's shape. As a needle also has "hegy" as a pencil has "hegy" too.
"Lot's of old men in speedos.,, XD As a hungaryan, i can aproove.
Szia Levi! Köszönjük ezt a csodálatos videót, és hogy megosztottad másikkal is az élményeidet. Nagyon megható volt hallgatni. Ismeretlenül is nagy szeretettel köszöntelek Magyarországról! Isten áldjon! Vigyázz Magadra! Várunk vissza! :)
oh my! I live is Székesfehérvár literally on the old roman streets he was talking about!! all the things he said about us were so sweet and i am so glad he had a fun time and that he likes being here! ps: guys our foods ARE really great like come on have a taste!!
Its amazing that you know so much abaut Hungary, Hungary history.
Sorry if my English is not the best.
We love you too. God Bless you!
Soo the meaning behind easter tradition is: its the time when young men would go propose to the women. They go to the girl they like tell a poem that is usually about a flower getting dry and needing to be watered. The girl then answers if she refuses or acceps the watering. IF she acceps the splash happens. Then the girl gives an egg to the man. The eggs represent life so it either means the girls gives her life aka wants to be married, it means she want to hive the man new life aka an ofspring aka start a family.
It is emotionally nice and very compassionate to see us in your eyes us friendly people who are always willing to help.God take care about you and your family until end of times,see you hopefully soon us I member of our family.
Le a kalappal Uram! :) Szívesen látunk bármikor! :)
Én magyar vagyok és imádom az országomat! Köszi hogy te legalább szeretsz mimket! Thankyou! Köszönöm!❤️❤️
I am happy that you love Hungary 🇭🇺 greetings from Hungarian girl
I was curious about the english subtitles so I took a look at it. I know that it is automatically generated but when he says "rakottkrumpli" ( a hungarian dish ), the subtitle says "raw code crumply" :DDDD By the way your pronounciation is great so keep it up :)
What a beautiful ending you spoke the true.May God bless you.
I really enjoyed your video. Its great that you are so open to new experiences and learning about new cultures. I was born in Budapest but my family escaped when i was 8 years old during the communist era. I have lived in Australia for the last 40 years. I lived in Budapest for a year when i was 23. I partied so hard with people i met that i had to come home to rest. I have the best memories of Hungary which always makes me smile. The older i get the more i miss the culture, my grandmothers palinka, langos, csokis palacsinta, walking down the Korut with my grandad, and Ferencvaros !! Love to you all !!!!
Aw bless him! It’s beautiful to hear how well he speaks Hungarian! Well done! XX
We love you too my good sir. God bless you too and your loved ones. Cheers.
Imádom a rakottkrumplit, hell yesh! :DD
Woah that message at the end was awesome.
"Resting upset faces" is the best description of my gaze. Thank you
Mi is nagyon szeretünk téged! :)
Dude, you bring tears to my eyes. Isten áldjon!
I am so happy to hear all this things about us.
I love to be Hungarian.
Glad bless you!
Buying the AC unit in Hungary is easy. Paying the energy bill month after month... Not happening. I'd rather sweat.
Thanks for the words!
Köszönjük.
You hungairian is sooo good and what you said at the end made me cry ❤️🇭🇺😭🥰
Remek hallani, hogy kedveled a Magyar társaim, s országunk!! :)

You're a great 🇺🇸American. You're very accurate.
Greatings from 🇨🇦Canada.
Awww🥺 you're so special to do such a thing🥺 My heart just melted 🥺
Megríkattál... ❤️
:) the Easter tradition of 'watering' the girls has its root in the fertility idea - spring, new life, fertility
Woooow your Hungarian was sooo good blows my mind when foreign people speak it so perfectly.
You:How are you?
The random person you asked tells you how She/He is
You:I don't need to know that.
#palacsintapillanat Laughing so hard realising that yeees we tend to be like this.
Thank you, for getting to know our culture and sharing these wonderful memories with us. Beautiful closure, thank you for sharing the love, it really made my day!
The ending melted my heart. Thank you!
As far as I'm concerned, you're a hungarian bro, I loved to hear your stories of our country.
Székesfehérvár better translates in a sentence. wich sounds like white castle with a cathedral.
Thank you Levy ! Your message was absolutely beautiful at the end ! I'm a grown man , but your lovely message brought tears to my eyes! You are a wonderful person , and thank you so much for the lovely video ! At the end you said " Isten alldja a Magyart " now it's my turn : Kedves draga Levy ! A jo Isten aldjon meg teged es a felesegedet ! Nagyon nagyon jo emberek vagytok! Koszonom szepen a csodaszep videot. Tisztelettel Purzsas Tibor Vancouver bol .

Thank you so much for kind words. There were so touching i just started to cry❤ it was really good to hear about your experience 😊 Minden jót 😊
Awww. That was so heartwarming to listen to. Áldás ❤️
This was a great summary! Thank you!
It's really interesting to get an other perspective on my country.
And your pronunciation is on point, great job!
I like Bekeshaba city i seen in free cctv the plaza my favorite place simple people simple place FROM PHILIPPINES!
It's good to see you enjoyed your time here
This was so great. I literally never comment (too lazy), so take this as a compliment. Really enjoyed the video, glad I clicked.
You seem so genuine and just down to earth. There is something about you and the way you see things that makes you very likeable.
Never lived in Budapest [my hometown is between Miskolc and Kosice (SK)], and have been living abroad for the past 16 years so it was nice to listen to your stories and general experience.
Anyhow, keep up the great work!
It was good to see and hear! Also touching! :) Thank you so much! //From a Hungarian from Hungary
Thank you for this lovely video we don't hear too often that we are fun and easy to love so it was nice to hear that you saw us like that
Thank you for this beautiful video. It's always amazing to hear someone talking so nicely about their home country. Made me really happy.
