Megyek dolgozni Megyek is "I'm going", but also "I go", because we don't have a continuous tense. Dolgozni is "to work". Note that this is not derived from the Hungarian equivalent of "work" - it's munka.   @hunpron #work #hungary #magyar #language #hungarian ♬ original sound - Hungarian…..

egyetérteni = to agree We don't have an auxiliary verb equivalent to "do" in English, therefore questions and negative structures are formed in a different way.  When we want to ask the other person if they agree or not, we simply conjugate the verb and use an interrogative intonation. If it's a…..

A follower asked me to explain how to say "I live", "I will live" and "I have lived" in Budapest.  First, we use the verb élni, which means "to live".  1. I live in Budapest The first person singular form of this verb is élek (I live). "In Budapest" is Budapesten. Here we use the -on/en/ön…..

A follower asked me to talk about the meanings of hogy.  Hogy is a short form of the question word hogyan, so it should be no surprise that hogy is used in questions like Hogy vagy? = How are you?  Hogy mondtad? = How did you say that?  Hogy is also a conjunction, i.e. a word connecting two…..
A follower asked me about the word sajnálom.  While sajnálom is also a word that expresses "I am sorry", there is a clear difference when compared with bocsánat, elnézést, or ne haragudj. These three are appropriate when you have made a mistake or hurt somebody. Sajnálom expresses your empathy and…..
A follower asked me to explain how we say "I'm sorry".  There are several ways of saying "I'm sorry", but now we'll talk about three.  1. Bocsánatot kérek Bocsánat is something like "forgiveness", so this sentence means "I am asking for forgiveness". It is very common only to say bocsánat,…..

Let's first collect the words.  látni = to see láttam = 1st person singular form in past tense, i.e. I saw egy = a, an macska = cat  Before constructing the sentence, we need to note that the verb látni has an object: látni valamit = to see something. It is a general rule in Hungarian that…..
