I think Lena like sleeping till 11am. Jó reggelt can be used really just in the morning like no latest than 9am.

Yeah, if someone is using Jó reggelt! after 11 AM, then they're passive-aggressively calling the other person a sleepyhead 😄

My family used jo reggelt till almost noon, nobody took offense. But we didn't use szia as it was looked apon too informal in my family.

Hi, and how's your Hungarian language now? =)

I wish I remembered phrased. My dad made us stop speaking Hungarian when I was 5. I'm now 71. He faced a lot of discrimination here( spoke 7 languages fluently Came from Sicily but spokeHungarian too. My mom spoke Hungarian,although born here. Was sent to school with lots of other children of immigrants to learn English before started first grade. Smart idea. So many European and Mediterranean languages spoken in Cleveland Ohio to at that time. Many settled in groups ,together in Cleve. I'd run up and down my maternal grandma's street,up onto front porches where 5ge grandparents sat outside playing cards. They'd pinch our cheeks,offer us cookies they'd made after calling 5heir grandchildren out of house to go with us to school playground at head of street,but across it. Then we'd go on to next house,and next. Same thing repeated. Kids spoke English but also their families native tongue. It was normal to us. I grew up thinking all cities were like that ,lol. Hungarian seems hard now,but 5gen my hearing is bad,so looking at words in Hungarian doesn't really help me. I'm very upset still,that my dad told us we had to speak English from now on. Even at home. He didn't want us to face the mean ,hateful,tx that Americans gave him. Telling him ....go home Foreigner. We don't want you here !.... I heard people outside the Italian city we moved to in Ohio, when I was 2 . The city right next to us( Willowick ) said it to my dad one day as he went into the small hardware store to buy something. The owner said it to him! Guess 5gay man forgot 5hat at one time his ancestors came here ( from England I assume). He certainly wasn't a Native American. He was a WASP (white,Anglo- Saxon Protestant). I was so hurt when I heard him say that to us. My father was more intelligent than him dressed better,had impeccable manners. Spoke 6 languages fluently,could do ANYTHING,from fix everything ,cars included,build a house ,wire it,do all the plumbing,roofing, plastered all the walls,put in a garden,grow fruit trees( also graft other varieties of fruit trees onto a diff fruit tree. I use to watch him. Had several 5ypes of apples on one tree. Cut up our steer when grown( free roaming,grass fed and finished). He did mortar work, laid wood and tile floors, fixed anything electric,tvs too. We never had a repair man,as he learned how to do it all,growing up in Sicily,and traveling all over Europe and Mediterranean ,with his Dad,Uncles , Brothers. That's why he spoke so many languages fluently. His dad had a large farm,did mortar work ,made alcohol in huge vats for govt.,etc. There were 18 children born to his mom and dad. 14 lived past 5 yrs old His,my maternal grandma's,my mom's and uncles,and all their cousins ,lived very interesting lives. They were First Generation ,as was I to my dad. I was second generation Americans to my mom's family. She was first,as were all her cousins. All the family ,and cousins lived near each other when came to Cleveland from Hungary. They usually lived with a family member who had come here ahead of 5hem,from Hungary,married and settled here,started families. Pretty much the same story for all those who came here to live,but born in another Country

and pretty

If you want to dig into the grammar, then I'd strongly recommend investing in a book on Hungarian grammar. Such a book will complement these youtube videos very well. I've been learning different languages for 30 years or so, and in my experience, a grammar book is indispensable (or multiple ones is even better). One Hungarian grammar book I like is the one by Carol Rounds, _Hungarian: An Essential Grammar_, published by Routledge. You can find PDFs online if you search a bit.

And once more: Jó etvágyát.

Cause it is an english expression, that made it to hungarian.

@@godwannabe8976 no, tf it's not. It's an abbreviation from szervusz, a word that has its origins in Latin. Nothing to do with the English and their language.

@@ginismoja2459 I disagree

Yes, and saying "Hello" when parting.

@@ginismoja2459 It is not so, the origin of Hungarian "szia", spelled /sia/ the "see you again", and allegedly originates from 1938, when an international scout meeting (Jamboree) was in Gödöllő - Budapest.

She used the standard form in both languages, even though the standard form in English is the infinitive, the standard form in Hungarian is the 3rd person singular, present tense.

Because you can hit 2 birds with 1 stone. The sing. 3rd is also the polite form, so you can say "Hová megy Ön?" and voilá, you have just asked "Where are you going" in the formal way.

Not at all, "l" isn't a silent letter even it is at the end of a word, for example: "talál" (= he/she finds) or "hol" (=where)

Nem tudom means I don't know. Nem tudok means I can't.

@@gabor6259 Jól fogtad meg, de nem inkább " I don't know it", ill. I can't to........(e. g. swimm)

@@zoltankiss9348 I don't know it = Nem ismerem. És nincs olyan, hogy "I can't to".

@@gabor6259 I) Igaz, a "to" nem kell, pl I can't swimm. "2) a " to know"azt is jelenti, hogy valamit meg tudni csinálni pl "know how to ride" (= tud biciklizni) Ne felejtsd, hogy az angol szavaknak többféle magyar jelentése is van!

What would you say?

@@ginismoja2459 I say 'Nagyon örülök!' (It's a pleasure), but you can also say 'Örvendek!', it sounds too formal and old school for me though.

To much commatas ;-)

I dream of being THIS petty!

Így igaz, vessző nélkül értelmetlen mondatocskák keletkeznek!

Yes, i can, but i may not

if you have a few years..maybe : )

Léna

@@ibrahimovyalcin3154 surname so for instagram

Her*

She literally states at 01:44 that "reggel" means "morning", and simultaneously they even highlight the "reggel" (without the "t") in the text.

Hogi vagi :-)

Gy in Hungarian is similar to the English “dg”, except you’ll add a subtle “yuh” sound on the end.
