The HARDEST Language in The World? (Hungarian) 

Among us sussy language

I think the question is very relative if we define difficulty by the amount of time required to learn a language. It all depends on your native language and previous languages you studied. If we objectively tried to find the most difficult language it would still be incredibly difficult. Are we focusing on grammar, then Hungarian is undoubtedly difficult although it does have it's own logic, Slavic languages are similarly difficult, probably a bit less though since Hungarian is agglutinating and it really has a lot of suffixes (trust me, I'm Hungarian). If we look at vocabulary used then it could even be a language whose grammar is easy. If we look at writing system, from major languages, I think China tops the list.

I like how you don't pin your own comment

I'm from hungary, and everyone saying "magyar a legnehezebb nyelv a világon" . In english "the hungarian the most difficult language in the world".

We Finns have been calling the Hungarians as "heimoveljet" (tribe brothers). because languistically Finnish is related to Hungarian, which is probably the hardest Uralian language. it is also clearly the biggest language in that group (13 million speakers) , Finnish being the second biggest (6 million speakers).

Love only exists for me the only lovable / love being, and love emojis / love related terms cannot be in comments etc, and only the word like should be used when referring to pretty languages! By the way... Hungarian and Icelandic aren’t as hard as ppl think (not even close to the hardest languages such as Arabic languages and Indian languages and Chinese / Japanese / Korean etc) and most Hungarian words aren’t long at all, they’re just a bit harder to read / spell than the words in most Germanic languages, but the words themselves are easy to remember / learn and the pronunciation is also very easy, so the words and the spoken language can be learned quite fast with the right methods like spaced repetition (memorizing as many thousands of words as possible as fast as possible by watching all sorts of vocab videos multiple times, but over a period of time, not on the same day, but one should watch them at least twice or thrice on the first day and a few days later, and then they can be watched on maximum speed to save time at least once or twice a week or every other week etc, but one must be very focused on each word and on the English translation and visualize each words and each letter of each word in one’s mind, otherwise one won’t learn anything) and then observing how others use them in sentences and using them the same way, and also watching all sorts of videos on grammar / prepositions / verbs / pronunciation / conjunctions etc and videos with sub in the target language + English sub and videos about idioms and expressions etc, and one should try learning as many song lyrics (in the target language) as possible, and after learning at least 5.000 words, one should start watching more videos with both subs hardcoded, so that both subs are shown at the same time, because that’s how one can easily pick up new words in context and get used to the sentence structure etc, and it’s also a good idea to watch most videos at least twice or thrice, and revise them after a while, and always revise the words that have already been learned until all words can be remembered automatically, and even though it’s good to learn all the pronunciation rules at the beginning because it gives an inkling of what the words words sound like, one should always learn each word with its pronunciation and spelling, in the target languages, and once one gets to a really advanced level where one understands almost every word, one should start watching mostly videos with Dutch sub (or sub in another target language) and reading eBooks in the target language etc, as that’s how an automatic mode in a new language is developed - only the spelling may take a bit longer to get used to and to memorize the exact spelling for each word, which is similar to the spelling of many French words, which also use a lot of accents on vowels!

For example, I can easily say in Hungarian... Èn szeretem a Magyar nyelvet! And other things like that, and I know over 200 new words after only studying it for 2 or 3 days! Hungarian words are usually easy to remember, especially the super pretty words like nyelv / zöld / szia / tüzet / kés / elem / nyár / alma / mindig / okos / minden / igen / lenni / sötet / ezt / szeretem / rejtett / aranyát / lesz / egy / víz / zene etc, which are almost as easy to remember as most Dutch words and most Welsh / Breton / Norwegian words etc, after only seeing them once or twice or thrice, so most words in these languages can be learned super fast, especially if one is very focused on the words and gets to see them well in the video! I also knew a lot of words from the songs Nem Lesz Több Tánc and Szeretem by Nox, but I didn’t know what they meant before I started (seriously) learning Hungarian, including watching videos on grammar and pronunciation and verb conjugations and things like that! Hungarian is easier than I thought, especially the pronunciation and the aspect of about half of the words are those of a category 1 language, while the spelling in general is like that of a category 3 language, so it will take a while to memorize the exact spelling for each word with the right accent / umlaut etc, but it isn’t a lot harder than the spelling of many French words, for example, so one will naturally get used to the spelling if one is exposed to a lot of Hungarian, like, videos with subs in Hungarian and English and especially videos with subs in Hungarian on a regular basis, and gets to see the words spelled out many times, and I think it could be learned to a very advanced level (or to a native speaker level even) in about 2 or 3 years, or even in one year if one is a full-time language learner!

@@tword7 Örülök neked 😊 Így tovább!

Same for me as a german! Even when I started to learn Hungarian by co workers and learning simple words and phrases first, I completely fell in love with the language ! the biggest benefit as being a german while learning Hungarian, is to be able to properly pronounce the letters an the rest of the alphabet, cause it’s very similar to ours… For example: Hungarian „áéíóú“ and the German „aeiou“ is pronounced exact the same way :) so you can easily learn to properly read sth. out loud an Hungarian people can unterstand it- even when you don’t understand what you are talking 😂👌🏼 but I agree with the difficulty on the grammar side- forget or add an apostrophe, change the ending of the basic word and your ending up with changing the complete meaning cause you may have been changed the time, place, aspect/reference or quite a completely different word

Köszönöm szépen ☺️

It isn't as hard as it is told here. Every language is difficult to learn. Hungarian uses a lot of Slavic words, for eaxmple "sapka", "kaposzta"... I am sure you understand those. 🙂

@@miklosbrauner I do 😌

I haven’t heard throaty sounds in Hungarian - the DZS letter combination is considered a letter in Hungarian and it is the same sound as the DG in the English word bridge and the J in the English word jungle, so it is an approximant of G, while the DZ or DS is the same sound as the DZ / DS in the English words ads and adze / adzing / adzed and the Z in the Italian word zio which means uncle, and I think the ZS is a J sound like in the French word je, and SZ is a S sound, but the letter S is pronounced like a soft SH sound as in the English word shell, and CS is a CH sound as the CH in the English word chips! Hungarian pronunciation is very easy, and the extra vowels with accents are usually the longer versions of the normal vowels and the longer versions of the two umlauts Ö and Ü that are also used in German, while the É is usually pronounced more like a I or YE sound in most words, kinda like in Icelandic, while the Á is a normal open A sound like the AA in Dutch, but the A is usually pronounced closer to a soft O sound in most Hungarian words, and the only letter I didn’t understand yet is the GY because I didn’t understand if it’s supposed to be a G + short I / Y sound or a D + short I / Y sound, but I will watch more videos on pronunciation, because maybe it will be clearly explained in a video!

In the beginning, one may find any new language difficult, but that’s because one doesn’t know any word yet and doesn’t know how the language works - so it’s just a feeling that every beginner has. But one will soon realize that Hungarian isn’t as hard as ppl think... Once one learns the basics and starts learning a lot of vocab and the verb endings etc and the prepositions / adverbs / conjunctions etc, one will see that it isn’t a very hard language, and it also helps a lot if one knows languages such as Dutch / German / Spanish / Slovene / English etc, because there are a few similarities in the aspect of certain words and some similarities in pronunciation, for example, German also has the umlauts Ö and Ü and they are pronounced the same way as they are in Hungarian, and the C in Hungarian is pronounced like the C in Slovene and like the Z in German and like the ZZ in pizza, so C is a TS sound, while the CS in Hungarian is pronounced like the CH in English & Spanish, so the pronunciation is very easy, and most Hungarian words can be memorized fast because they are very pretty, so they don’t require a lot of repetition, and prettier words naturally stick to one’s hern faster!

megszentségtelenít is actually desecrating, and if you continue from there, the rest remains perfectly sensibly for a bit longer, megszentségtelethetetlen is just we add the impossiblity of the act to it, so undesecrateable. Add the -ség, making it undesecrateabality. Beyond this it gets truly into stupidity, where you would need several sentence to make any sense, but heck, that is the fun of an agglutinating language, we can add many parts, and in most case, the monster we create has still meaning and also easily understandable. Going from holy to undesecrateability without changing the base word is a nice trick.

I learned Dutch to an advanced level (over 8.000 base words) after only focusing on it for about 3 months, and am beginner level in Hungarian and Welsh and Slovene and many other languages - I even noticed certain similarities between Dutch & Hungarian and between Dutch & Welsh words and patterns / letter combinations etc, for example, the Hungarian word kés is kinda similar to the Dutch word mes and it means the same thing, so I could immediately remember it, even though I only saw it once!

Dutch words are just too pretty not to know, and 83 of the prettiest words in Dutch are - ver, vlinder, verloren, feest, adem, vaste, veel, verdween, heel, het, heen, voorbij, vandaan, verven, domein, verwaald, drijfzand, lief, leegte, liefde, heerst, einde, zonder, weet, avond, vult, gekomen, centrum, moment, pad, loop, overheerst, vallen, twijfel, vinden, kelde, wald, ter, geweest, vrees, grenzen, verleg, rein, van, stellen, wilde, steeds, verstreken, evenbeeld, bleef, steile, vrede, stem, wens, net, tijd, stille, verwenst, zalig, ochtend, zilverreiger, weer, overwint, heerlijk, zin, hart, beweert, vanaf, kwijt, wolken, mes, verliezen, dwaling, verlaten, rede, trek, tuinhek, brand, verdien, blikje, vertellen, verder, vertrek...

Some of the prettiest Welsh words are derwen / nest / afon / talar / adeilad / helygen / afal / hyd / lolfa / enaid / bedwen / neithiwr / ynys / nos / sydd / noswaith / ers / mynd / rhosyn / eistedd / gwych / tân / fawr / telyn or delyn / ynddyn / llaw or dwylo / doeth / fewn or mewn / gwar / bys / ffynnon / swrn / tew / blin / mynydd / braich etc, and Welsh reminds of Dutch (Dutch / English / Norwegian are the prettiest and most refined languages ever with the most pretty words) because they have a similar intonation / vibe and they both have the CH sound and many of the words have similar types of letter combinations!

For example, I can easily say in Hungarian... Èn szeretem a Magyar nyelvet! And other things like that, and I know over 200 new words after only studying it for 2 or 3 days! Hungarian words are usually easy to remember, especially the super pretty words like nyelv / zöld / szia / tüzet / kés / elem / nyár / alma / mindig / okos / minden / igen / lenni / sötet / ezt / szeretem / rejtett / aranyát / lesz / egy / víz / zene etc, which are almost as easy to remember as most Dutch words and most Welsh / Breton / Norwegian words etc, after only seeing them once or twice or thrice, so most words in these languages can be learned super fast, especially if one is very focused on the words and gets to see them well in the video!

Hungarian and Icelandic aren’t as hard as ppl think (not even close to the hardest languages such as Arabic languages and Indian languages and Chinese / Japanese / Korean etc) and most Hungarian words aren’t long at all, they’re just a bit harder to read / spell than most words in Germanic languages, but the words themselves are easy to remember / learn and the pronunciation is also very easy, so the words and the spoken language can be learned quite fast with the right methods like spaced repetition (memorizing as many thousands of words as possible as fast as possible by watching all sorts of vocab videos multiple times, but over a period of time, not on the same day, but one should watch them at least twice or thrice on the first day and a few days later, and then they can be watched on maximum speed to save time at least once or twice a week or every other week etc, but one must be very focused on each word and on the English translation and visualize each words and each letter of each word in one’s mind, otherwise one won’t learn anything) and then observing how others use them in sentences and using them the same way, and also watching all sorts of videos on grammar / prepositions / verbs / pronunciation / conjunctions etc and videos with sub in the target language + English sub and videos about idioms and expressions etc, and one should try learning as many song lyrics (in the target language) as possible, and after learning at least 5.000 words, one should start watching more videos with both subs hardcoded, so that both subs are shown at the same time, because that’s how one can easily pick up new words in context and get used to the sentence structure etc, and it’s also a good idea to watch most videos at least twice or thrice, and revise them after a while, and always revise the words that have already been learned until all words can be remembered automatically, and even though it’s good to learn all the pronunciation rules at the beginning because it gives an inkling of what the words words sound like, one should always learn each word with its pronunciation and spelling, in the target languages, and once one gets to a really advanced level where one understands almost every word, one should start watching mostly videos with Dutch sub (or sub in another target language) and reading eBooks in the target language etc, as that’s how an automatic mode in a new language is developed - only the spelling may take a bit longer to get used to and to memorize the exact spelling for each word, which is similar to the spelling of many French words, which also use a lot of accents on vowels!

yes as it says finnugor so finnish and hungarian are relatives in language family

Spasiba. Ja ne gavarju pa russki, but at elementary school I had to learn it. It was many years ago. At that time I didn't like learning russian, but now I listen to many pop songs. I think Russian is a nice, pleasant, soft language. I wish I had more time to learn it.

You mixed up szar and szár, it's the other way around xD

yes, indeed, it's the other way around: szár (the long thin part of a plant from which the leaves and flower grow). szar means shit. Indeed, I just looked at google translator, it is mixed up about the difference: on one hand it gives us the translation for "szár" as "shit", but below in the suggestion field it also gives the correct one as "stem". Indeed, sometimes you have to add the accent with the suffixes, so that may complicate things ;-)

And you have to be careful when toasting to say "egészségedre!" and not "egész seggedre!"

You can also get a completely different meaning if you mix up the order of words in a sentence. It will probably make sense but will mean something totally different.

I'll have to remember that next time I win a gold medal in Hungary. Ouch!!!

I started learning it because I had a girlfriend there, but I don't want to stop learning now because it's a great language. I like how it sounds and I want to go back to Hungary to see more of it when it's safe to travel.

That's bullshit! First of all, a native speaker do not have to think of how to use the language. It is instinctive. Second, scientifically, there is no such thing as most difficult language. As all languages are arbitrary, they are equally difficult/easy. Obviously, there may be personal differences regarding how hard a given language is for a specific person, mostly based on the similarities/differences to their mother tongue. But this has nothing to do with the - non-existent - overall difficulty of languages.

hi

I mean, english alao has red and crimson. I eould wager most languages have a word for red an 'blood red', with agressive connotations.

Vörös is the color of the blood őr dark red Piros is just red

@@ineednochannelyoutube5384 Yeah, the problem is that there's a word for crimson as well well Vörös is somewhere between bright red and crimson actually.

If you are familiar with paints you find not one or two, but many name for every colour in every language. @@ineednochannelyoutube5384

Yes! I’m half Hungarian and didn’t learn it as a kid, so I have struggled for years off and on trying to learn it. But even I have seen glimpses of what you mean about the logic of the language. It’s brilliant. I always appreciated the spelling, too. The words are spelled exactly as they sound and sound exactly how they’re spelled. I can actually read pretty much anything out loud in Hungarian and everyone tells me how great I sound. LOL If I could only understand it!

I think arabic ist so easy. Definitely a lot easier than hungarian. I speak Englisch,German,arabic(egyptian and lebanese),Greek,hungarian and a little korean. I think hungarian is the hardest, followed by korean.

only hungarians can understand the true value of the melodiness of the language. once you can speak, you understand how many ways there actually are, to even say a phrase. love my mother tongue!

Agreed! I think it is hard for a non-native speaker to produce some of the sounds in Arabic and especially in Mandarin, although if you try to teach the letters "ny, gy, ty" to anyone new to Hungarian.....well, you're in for a good laugh. Also, if I understand correctly, in Mandarin the same word at a different pitch has a different meaning. "The swallow glides between the shady tree branches" sounds pretty even in English, eh? One misconception I often hear from Hungarians is how rich Hungarian vocabulary is compared to English. Perhaps at the "konyhanyelv" level, but if you listen to some posh Brits like Stephen Fry, (coincidentally he is half Hungarian) an absolute virtuoso of the language, I bet you'll be reaching for your dictionary every second sentence. My writing in multiple compound sentences, as I just noticed, should be a giveaway that my first language is Hungarian and I absolutely love it. We just love those page-long sentences, don't we?

As a hungarian, I must say I like your sentence with the fecske. I think you got it!🤘

We just don't plan to rule the world We're not really into fights now We was in our past, but that was way far from now And also Hungary is a small country, how can we take over the place of Russia or other countries? Maybe the smaller ones But why would we do that? We almost live in peace I mean I might want to change everything because some families can't have enough money for everything they really need, but still, it's better than a war And also there's beautiful girls (I mean they're everywhere in tge world, but in Hungary they're more) And handsome teachers And it's weird But we don't have Disney+ and we need to do illegal hunting to get some serues, videos, games, and books Like the Disney+ version of Hamilton that I got with pirating it So yeah Also anime is not much popular yet, but it starts and you can see fans everywhere Mostly Boku no Hero Academia fans, but in the second place there's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Attack on Titan fans

Hungary would certainly rule (maybe not the world) but europe if they hadn't enemies on both sides. Not only their nobel prices, but history how they fought (battle of pressburg for example) show how extremly intelligent hungarians are. A shame they had very bad luck with allies each time they fought a war.

The location sucks lol Europe is absolutely horrible

One who scratches the surface, knows that the rock can be cracked. Ancient Chinese proverb.... I think.

I can always pick a Hungarian who learnt English that way, for the same reason.

Nem lehetetlen, csak kurvára nehéz! It's not impossible, it's just fucki#g hard!

Just be easy on yourself. The people definitly will prize you just for trying, and the practice will make you succeed with time. 😀

Im a hungarian, who learned Japanese a few years ago. I think, Japanese is easy to learn speak, but very hard to learn write and read. Hungarian is different: its moderate hard to learn write, but very hard to learn speak, because there is so many rules, and much much more exceptions, and special terms.

Yes, because German was wide-spread due to the geographical closeness and the history of Austria-Hungary, while having so many slavic people around Hungary, the influence cannot be avoided.

I liked to learn german it is such a very logical language. It was a lot of fun.😀Please feel free to write with as many misspelling as you can. A language is for using and you can be very proud of your great effort to learning it.😀

hungarian is not difficult. but... we have way more strict rules and way more words then other language. so when u start leaning u have to learn way more rules to speak on basic level but after that, becuase the language is logical and have a strong wovel harmony u will feel the rules. so just the begining is hard.

Good luck with your language learning. Greetings from Hungary! :)

Yes, and in fact their language is much more older. Some of them are people whose ancestors never crossed the Carpathian mountains (with the tribes lead by Árpád).

I don't think so... at first it seems a little strange, but try to listen carefully, it is very understandable and sometimes it can even amuse you!

My friend, they speak a mixture of Kipchak Turkish and Hungarian.

@@sdfsd34w2 I'm not a specialist in linguistics, but I'm just saying that I'm from Romania and I have a friend who speaks CSANGO ... I have no problem understanding him, my mother tongue being Hungarian. Sometimes I am amused by certain words and I find that they have a ... Moldovan accent, Moldova being the region in Romania where they are located, beyond s sthe eastern Carpathian mountain. PS. it was very difficult to answer you because you have probably the program adapted for the Hebrew language.

@@laszlovondracsek I know these. Already, Szekelys and Gagauz Turks live in Moldova. Magyars and Turks come from the same race, my friend. Our languages are quite similar even today, for example; MG: "Zsebemben sok kicsi alma van" TR: Cebimde çok küçük alma var" EN: "I have a very small apple in my pocket" By the way, my name is written in the old Turkic alphabet, not the Hebrew alphabet. :)

@@csabapajer9544 Did I mention the other major problem with learning Hungarian? It is that there's always some native Hungarian speaker there at your elbow ready to correct your grammar. That's one thing we don't do much of in English. Thanks, it's really encouraging. Not.

@@maddyg3208 Ok, feel be hurted, if you want. If you cant see the difference between the correcting and correcting, then I wish you a beutiful life on the side of snowflakeism. Btw, I did this only for help, and yes, english people are do too, trust me, I live in an english-speaking country from 4 years now. And I never felt they want to look down me with the correcting. Have good day...

@@csabapajer9544 No worries and thanks Csaba, sorry, it was a complete overreaction on my part. I did have an idea that you were trying to be helpful but it was overridden by my own frustration. I get corrected by my wife a lot (not in a mean way, but also in a helpful way) It's hard enough to remember the words and then the word endings and the word order, and it's like no matter what I do I'm always wrong. I'm also in Australia, so I can't really practice my Hungarian anywhere.I do think it's a bit of a cultural difference though, in English we're more used to people from countries all over the world butchering our language ... I mean making their own unique contribution to its rich diversity. 😎

@@maddyg3208 As rethinking, I was not really nice as well. Sorry about that. And, because I like, when the born english-speakers correct me, I forget so often, somebody else is dont like it, or they have bad experience. And I have to admit, my people is very proud, and always try to proof their cultural-superiority, so sometimes their so called "help" is just come from the same desire - and its all becuse our minority-feelings. Actualy, you made only one wrong word in that sentence, but because they have the same meanings basicly, its a mistake what very hard to avoid. The only help with that, if you are live in Hungary or a hungarian community, because there is no rules in the grammar for this problem, only just the living talk. The one of the most important lesson, what I learned about my english is this: doesnt matter, what small mistakes you do, if they understand, what you want to say.. If they dont, but they want to understand, they will help to you. But if they dont want, its doesnt matter how perfect you are. So its meaningless to frustrated yourself because of that. And always remember for that: even with any mistakes, you are still better in hungarian, than anyone else, who dont know any hungarian word. :)

ohhhh I'm Slovak learning Korean actively and lately I've tried learning Japanese too, but yes, Japanese seems harder for me 😅 I've never spoken Hungarian though my grandpa spoke it

@@ta_ly indeed ;) how are you on learning Korean ? I've been studying on and off for about 3 years. I've went even for a language school in Hungary for about half year. I must say in the spam of half year i learnt more than learning myself. I've made a mistake, by learning a lot of grammar which I'm on intermediate level. The only problem is, my vocabulary is on the begginer level so I can do nothing with the learnt grammar. Are you learning it byself ?

@@SoulMirae I'm similar as you in Korean - I know a lot of grammar already, but my vocabulary is nothing much yet, so I can only understand simple sentences (in songs, comments, etc.) And yes, I'm learning by myself (for about a year) - I would try attending a school if having an opportunity, but I'm not sure if there's anything like that here in KE

@@ta_ly yeah it's hard here in Slovakia, that's why I had to travel every Saturday to Budapest early in the morning and came back home aroun 5pm so it was tiring. So technically I had only one day free from work. Current work don't even allow me to not work on weekends xD that's why I left. 4 years ago I've visited Seoul, and since then my dream became to go back and live there a bit so I cant fail. If you want we can help each other learning faster :) I'm down for it, because I've never found someone whom I can study :)

@@SoulMirae wow, that's impressing, I can't imagine working and still travelling hours away every weekend I've never been to Korea or Asia, but it's fine - I'm still young, there will surely be opportunities in the future (maybe university? who knows haha)
