Living in Budapest: The Hungarian Language

As with any international assignment, learning the language is essential to living and coping in your new surroundings. While the Hungarian language is complicated and difficult to learn, it will benefit you and your family's experience to enroll in a language school. Just learning the basics will greatly enhance your ability to communicate with the people around you. If your employer has not assigned you to a specific language program, here are three schools that will help you cross the often-frustrating language barrier divide.

I'm learning Hungarian! :)

[remekficko]

Good day= Jó napot (formal)

Good afternonn= Jó délutánt (would be, but this expression doesn't exist in hungarian language)

Good morning= Jó reggelt

Hi= Szia (informal)

[HugeHungarian]

@theguywholaughed I believe Jo napot is Good afternoon, and Jo reggelt! is good morning. If I am wrong, I welcome a native or otherwise fluent speaker to correct me.

[flamboyantST]

i love you Hungary !

[AoSTheWorshop]

the Hungarian language is a descendant of the Sumerian language. It's fact....look after if you don't believe me. Anyway, which is most exited information is, only the Hungarian language and not any other which is a descendant of the Sumerian language, which was the first language ever in this planet.

@TheKqkk Hungarian has verbal prefixes, that's for sure.

@mirabel999 She spoke about younger generations compared to older ones, so this was merely a figure of speech.
