Did you type all those proper nouns without looking up the spelling? Amazing! I have read that the Hungarian language is the hardest of all languages to learn.
I did the best I could wrt spelling. Its not the same as it is in Hungarian. Hungarian is FIENDISHLY hard to learn. I speak Spanish and French extremely badly. I’m fluent in German. Hungarian is a whole different galaxy of difficulty. Its not even Indo-European.
Some examples. Most languages have 6 personal pronouns.
Single - Plural
1st person I - We
2nd person You - You
3rd person He, She, It - They
Simple enough. We Hungarian doesn’t have 6....it has 12. There are the ones in the same structure as above, BUT there is definite and indefinite and you have to conjugate the verb differently.
“what the hell does he mean?” you’re thinking.
Vasarolok egy autot = I buy a car. Vasarolni is “to buy” and the “ok” ending means “I”. Its indefinite. A car. It could be any car. Its not clear that it is one exact car so that’s why its indefinite.
Vasarolom az autot. = I buy THE car. Notice how the verb ending changed even though its still “I” who is doing the action. Why? Because its definite. “THE” car. You know which car. That makes it definite. Therefore different conjugation of the verb.
It does this for all 6 pronouns. 12 different conjugations, not 6.
Plurals are more fun. In English with just a few exceptions, you add an “S” or “ES” on the end and that’s it. Not so easy in Hungarian. Plurals always end in “K” so if the word ends in a vowel, you just hang a “K” on the end. BUT if it doesn’t, it could be “ek”, “ok”, “ak” or some others. How do you know? You have to hear if the vowels are “shallow” or “deep”. You can get the hang of it (mostly) over time but its not easy to explain which is which.
Oh and there are 43 letters in the alphabet instead of 26 like in English. For example there is “o”, there is “o” with an accent mark over it, there is “o” with an umlaut ie two dots over it, there is “o” with two accent marks over it. These are 4 different letters. They sound different. My mouth won’t make the slightly different sound that separates “o” with the two dots over it and “o” with the two accent marks over it. I still somewhat struggle to hear that difference too. Hungarians hear the difference instantly. The letter “u” does the same thing. Its 4 different letters.
There’s more, but I trust your head is swimming already. :^)
