Little curiosity is on this hungarian word: Testvér. Brother or Sister in english. But testvér is two words. TEST and VÉR , BODY and BLOOD Testvér is in phonetic translation Bodyblood I think so , in this form is only in hungarian .
Keep it up. Learning Hungarian is great brain gym (personally that is the reason I think there are so many great Hungarian scientists, mathematicians, inventors and chess players - if you can speak Hungarian every thing else is easy) One point though. Hungarian is a language that has changed heaps of time. New vocab has been added over centuries as they came in contact with other people and new concepts - for instnce búza, bor, szőlő, homok, betű cme from TUrkic, király, pap, kovács, kasza came from Slavic. But the grammar has also changed. Several past tenses and a future have been trimmed in teh last couple of hundred years.
yes the language is fundamentally different, but once you adopt the new logic, it will be a lot less struggle. the first thing i say to anglophones that the biggest and most important things come first: this is fundamental and comes back in many aspects: dates are yy/mm/dd format, family names(surnames) come first, than names, in sentences the first part has the most emphasis and importance, and the stress is on the first syllables of the words.
You can learn more easily if you interpret the words. Like this one: lélegzet-lélek-élet-él-lel-lehel-lehelet-lehet-ell-mell-fel-felhő-szellő-szél-szellem-.... in english: breath-soul-life-live-found-exhale-breath-may-farrow-breast-up-clouds-breeze-wind-ghost-...
Nagyon értékelem, hogy téged külföldiként ennyire érdekel a magyar nyelv, és ahogy látom, elég jól is beszéled. Csak így tovább!I really appreciate that you, as a foreigner, are that interested in the Hungarian language, and it seems you're speaking it quite well. Just don't let it sink! (And I am sorry if my English is not in the highest level, I'm really trying to do my best.)
Para um poeta, a língua húngara é um armazém de palavras de sonoridade incomparável! Obrigado pela explicação de alguns detalhes sucinta da gramática da língua húngara !!
Hungarian is distantly related to many languages other than Finnish ;Estonian , Lappish (Sami), and a whole bunch of other obscure languages scattered throughout Russia and western Siberia .
+Márk Bányai No. There is a Swedish-speaking minority in Finland and has been there for centuries, as Sweden ruled Finland for so long . Swedish is an official language of Finland along with Finnish . The closest languages to Hungarian are the Khant and Mansi languages of western Siberia , which are close to extinction . They're not close enough for Hungarians to understand, but I've seen comparisons, and they are definitely related to Hungarian .
Hungarian language keep changing all the time. Hungarians don't use many words that they used before the WW2 and they adopted tons of new words from different countries. Older people still use many words that the younger generation doesn't understand because those words aren't used any more.
Every language has more and more changes by the time. Hungarian is not an exeption as well. Languages which don't change are extinct languages (i.e. Latin). Of course vocabulary changes are faster than gramatical changes, but they also happen. For example now nobody uses -nók, -nők suffixes for conditional, objective first person plurar (T/1 tárgyas feltételes mód), which were used until the 60's. Or the differences of the conjugation of '-ik' verbs now hass already been limited for first person singular cases, but less and less people care about distict this difference, propably it will disappear in the future as well. If we look for gramatical changes in the last 200 years we can see that the number of tences have been reducated dramatically. Now Hungarian language has only one past tence but in the 19th century it was more complex (i.e. Petőfi Sándor 'Egész úton hazafelé azon gondolkodám', instead of gondolkodtam...).
Hungarian is a logical language. No other language really is close. This Finno-Ugric stuff was made up by the Austrians to try and downplay the Huns during the Austro-Hungarian Empire days. There are maybe 4 words in both languages that sound similar and the stress on words is in the same place. The agglutination is something that doesn't really exist in other ones. And Hungarian can be spoken backwards. You hit on most of it. Hungarians appreciate it when you can speak it. The formality of speaking to older or important people exists in most languages other than English.
Péter Kiss yes, I know that. What I am saying. Just like in Hungarian. Russian has a very flexible grammatical structure. Just like in Hungarian there's many ways to say something in Russian.
+Péter Kiss No, it's not. If one can find similar in another language, because they have studied other languages. It makes learning the new language easier to learn. All languages are connected in some form or another. Because all humans are connected. We all started at one place at one time, before we spread across the globe.
Russian and Hungarian are not even historically connected. They belong to different groups entirely, the first is Indo-European, and the second is in the Ugro-Finnic group. They share hardly any vocabulary, structurally they are as dissimilar as two languages can be. So no one can possibly find this nonexistent connection useful.
Saying that language is hardest on the world? why? cuz thats good? or cool? no, its cuz u wanna be proud on urself for knowing it bcs u dont have ur own achivments in life (idk how to spel that achivments word) anyway, many languages have this feature, english is probably the edge of how much numbers of words u can put in a sentece, we will see, on my native lanugeage is just one word, but my language isnt agglutinave, also hungarian dosent have cases which makes it that much easier to learn and hungarian as well took latinic for granted, which means many strangers wont need to learn alphabet salut!
that's kinda not true. Hungarian alnpabet: a á b c cs d dz dzs e é f g gy h i í j k l ly m n ny o ó ö ő p q r s sz t ty u ú ü ű v w x y z zs I think they do need to learn the alphabet. Also you think Hungarian isn't hard to learn? What other language has this word? Megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért. Yup, that's a single word. Or: Elkelkáposztástalaníthatatlanságoskodásaitokért. That's another one. Kisses.
latinic is latinic how ever u turn it, it is one alphabet no i didnt said anywhere that hungaryan is easy to learn but this guy said it is hardest language on the world which its not Deffinition of a hardest language on the world is very...not competely made...so ye U also, gotta research about languages a bit more cuz a lot of languages gave such a words...not attacking hungarian but just so u know man :) look..hmm mine Електрицитетољубци :D
English is much harder than Hungarian because of tenses and pronunciation. Hungarians pronounce words as they are written, there is no silent e for instance. they use only one present tens, one future tens, and one past tens. English language is more difficult, there can be found many as 12 tenses.
Yeah, and that's it: 12 tenses and that is the WHOLE English grammar. If you know how to use those 12 tenses than you have to know only some words and you know how to speak English. About pronunciation: Hungarian is a very clear language which doesn't make the language easier. Difference between English and Hungarian language: you don't really have to think when you speak in English because there is no logic in it - they use lots of expressions but Hungarian language is based on logic and you have to built the words up and think constantly - it's like creating something without rest; you really have to use your brain even if your mother language is Hungarian. English is not hard rather confusing because of lack of logic in grammar and pronunciation.
In English pronunciation the words that spelled the same can be very tricky and hard to memorize, there are some rules that can help you to figure it out, if you don't pronounce it correctly you are in trouble. Words like: wind, lead, affect, attribute, back bank, bar, bat, bear, and so on..it is too many to list here, then there are words the opposite way that you need to memorize. There are lots of rules with the silent 'e', the letter 'e' and 'i', if the word ends with a syllable you pronounce it differently etc.,once you learned how to spell and pronounce a word you must learn how to use it in a sentence. The word 'wish' changes a sentence 3 different ways for example...it is confusing!
When I was in the hospital in a coma, the nurses thought I was speaking in " tongues " when I spoke in Hungarian.
Little curiosity is on this hungarian word: Testvér. Brother or Sister in english. But testvér is two words. TEST and VÉR , BODY and BLOOD
Testvér is in phonetic translation Bodyblood
I think so , in this form is only in hungarian .
i like his accent when he tries to say testvéreim XD
Typical hungarian comment on any site: bojler eladó! Means: boiler for sale! So if you see that somewhere, then hungarians are around! xD
¿ How did you know I was looking for a boiler?

P.s.hungarian language is so like turkice and english like german
It's like Russian. Russian is flexible like Hungarian.
they are really fundamentally different.

Wow, it seems like even English is hard for you.

that's kinda not true.
Hungarian alnpabet:

I think they do need to learn the alphabet.
Also you think Hungarian isn't hard to learn? What other language has this word?

latinic is latinic how ever u turn it, it is one alphabet
no i didnt said anywhere that hungaryan is easy to learn but this guy said it is hardest language on the world which its not
Deffinition of a hardest language on the world is very...not competely made...so ye
U also, gotta research about languages a bit more cuz a lot of languages gave such a words...not attacking hungarian but just so u know man :) look..hmm mine Електрицитетољубци :D
u gotta research**
Recently I've heard experts say that Hungarian is the closest language to biblical Aramaic.
