This channel is simply amazing. As a language lover, and Hungarian I think this video is the best linguistic video regarding our language. These videos bring people closer to each other. To your Comment, Cristian: thank you for your approach :) For me, Romanian is one of the most exciting language, I do learn Italian, and this is why I've just started to read/learn more about Romanian. It is so cool, that your language is so close to Latin and Italian, so far in the mountains. Multumesc :)

Hi from Budapest, as a half Romanian-Szekler, Hungarian Mother - maiden name Olariu

That's very intriguing.

Like your capital city/ Ulaanbaatar. The name Ulan is a man's name. Wulan would be Woman or Mulan. Baatar is from the word Bator and it means brave in the Hungarian language. So your capital city as it was more than 2000 years ago was the Ancient Hun dynasty. Due to the fact that half of my ancestors came from there. The Chinese great wall was built in the north in different sections due to the Hun people's constant harassment of war and occupation and systematic rubbery. Back then the Huns were against the Chinese Hans. But in one day they split into 2 half. 1 half went and blended into North-East China or today called Inner Mongolia and become farmers. The other half of the nomads' warriors and sheepherders and horse breeders went to Europe in the Carpathian basin Today's Hungary. You see today some Mongolians live like the ancient Nomadic Huns were. The tents were the same the small but hairy horses and also the recurve bow and arrow oh, and the wooden saddle on the horses cause if they needed to flee they turned around and could shoot while riding backwards. The Nomads were always on the move with family kids and all. Many Mongols live today like the Huns long before the Mongols. Some say the kids could ride a horse before he or they could walk. The horse was the most important to them. Also 2 types of dogs they breed 1 is the Komondor the other was the Puli. They were both herded dogs the bigger Komondor was also a protector due to its thick curly hair against wolves and the Puli which was pure black was even a babysitter in some cases. BTW the Komondor was pure white. They were dating back 2500-3000 years to the Huns. Back then Mongols weren't even a thought. But around 2000 years ago as they split the Mongol tribes moved into that land and live like the ancient Huns before them. Many Mongols are still nomadic and they have similar customs and some traditions to the Hungarians or the ancient Huns. So about 1200 years after the Huns left that empty bare useless land (even for grazing animals not so good) the Mongols came to power and with a powerful leader Ginghiskhan, they created a big empire. BTW way back the Huns were around 4 million people so 2 went to China and Inner Mongolia the other 2 million went to Europe. Today the Mongols have about 4 million people. Maybe a little less. It has bad weather no good for farming due to the high elevations. So in the winter is very cold and very mild in the summer. The place looks like Her in North America Northern Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta or the southern part of North-West Territory and Nunavut. It's an endless grassland and the grass is very poor in quality there. That is why China nor the Russians didn't need Mongolia. Very poor in minerals even in gold all they have is coal, but that is a big air polluter. For that reason, they had to be on the move all the time which made them nomadic cause it's just a very poor land. They have a lot of ponds very small lakes and tiny creeks and small rivers. If you like the cold and very crisp clean air and the endless grassland then Mongolia is for you to visit. lol. PS: My great grandfather on my mother's side looks a little Mongoloid only with white skin like the Europeans do, but his eyes were a little slented like the Mongols. Ha was short but with very brode shoulders. Little bow-legged dark hair and dark brown eyes. A little like the Eskimos. lol. As for me I have not even a little resemblance in me nor as my 2 daughters. lol. Oh yeah the language : I don't understand Mongolian but some ancient words are kind of similar. I do love the throat singing though. So Ulaanbaatar = Bator Ulan = Brave Ulan or Ulan the Brave. lol.

Well, he is a huge channel, so because of that, he needs to do a big research, in order to avoid hatred & gossip about making a mistake, I know it myself! When someone does a terrific job, people barely say thank you, but when one mistake exists, most of the people are ready to write about it.

This has little to do with schooling but with that neurologically speaking as a kid or infant you don't have the same abstract thinking and mental-strategies / higher faculties like an adult has. And later on in life most adults don't care about learning the logic of their own language, just like most don't care about exploring the beauty and diversity of their own country and rather associate travel with going abroad.

That's a very cool, heart-warming story. It could have happened to your grandfather that you watch a football match, your grandfather asks who plays, you say _Austria, Hungary,_ he asks _against whom?_

I have a similar story. My paternal grandfather was Serbian from Bacska, born during the Kingdom of SHS in the early 1920s. However, growing up in his ethnically mixed town (Србобран-Srbobran/Szenttamás), he spoke Hungarian as fluently as his native Serbian. Many years later he moved to Canada, and whenever he heard someone speaking Hungarian, he would approach them and start singing "elindultam szép hazámból, híres kis Magyarországból....", which, after the initial surprise, unavoidably brings tears, making fiends that instant.

Kein Wunder, in der deutschen Sprache könnt ihr kaum fluchen. Arschloch.... Da lachen wir drüber :D

It would take a lifetime to learn it but you still wouldn't master it.

Agreed! I learned finnish for 2 semesters at university, and these things are really similar. If i didn't pay attention to the teacher (happened dometimes :) ), i totally thought, she is speaking hungarian.

Yeah I'm a Hungarian and we are conflicted because there's a theory that we might be in relation with the turk nations rather then the finns... But our teacher sad that she learnt that on the university... You know the similarities between the two languages and it's just the grammar but if I would hear you speak I wouldn't understand a word... I speak Slovak too but with that I understand quite a lot in other Slavic languages too... But with Hungarian it's not nearly the same

Also it was funny and not easy for me to pronounce "ü" and "ö" separately and not in a word even though I was speaking this language for 15 years almost :))) Now I can see there are similarities between Turkish and Hungarian, to me Hungarian sounds like a Siberian Turkic language which has been heavily Europeanized.

the Turkish word is from Arabic

It comes from arabic. In Persian we also say Jeeb جیب for pocket.

The official answer is that we borrowed it from Turkish in about the 16th century, who borrowed it from Persian, who borrowed it from Arabic :) However do not forget that 9th century Byzantine sources call us Turk, and half of the world calls us onogur, which is Turk as well 😃 Zsebemben sok kicsi alma van.

Heya! To answer your question about learning languages as a hungarian: I personally live in slovakia but I am a hungarian, and in school we had to learn Slovak, Hungarian, English, German. For me it was always really weird to learn otther languages, like slovak and german having genders in them, and english with all the exceptions. I didnt learn basically any language from school cuz of this, only by myself. English I learned from games and YT while growing up, I always tought its really easy to speak it, but in grammar i was always bad (in school with grades basically) xd Slovak I never liked, for me the otther slavic languages always sounded better, but ofc I had to learn it since they force you to use it in official situations here. German I absolutelly hated, made no sense for me, hard to pronounce words etc. I dunno..me as a hungarian native speaker, I cant seem to grasp the genders in language gramatics (since hun doesnt use it). Anyways, I always tought that hungarian is a language wich makes so much sence, and as in the video was said: its not that hard if you start to learn it. I wholehearthedly recommend learning it, once you understand it its sooo nice to just talk :D (except when you are under the influance of some kind of substance, than you ll just rather speak english xD) its really nice for writing novels or poems, rap etc ,also you can really spot the differance in people who speak hungarian, for example you know if someone young/elderly is talking/writing or that person is a non native speaker, if that person is really smart/dumb, in general you can just recognise the person from the way he/she talks. Btw if someone would like to I can try to help anyone learn hungarian. Right now I can speak in 3 languages(speak and not write :D so ofc i make mistakes) but im going to learn more. My first goal is japanese since I think it has lot of similarities to hungarian, and after that mandarin and latin myb. Sorry for making this so long, have a nice day!^^

@Fascist Femboy uwu thats amazing! What are those 5?

To also answer the question as a Hungarian, as a kid, its absolute chaos XD In many respects German is easier for a Hungarian, the creation of words and sentences is like a cleaner Hungarian so it's kind of just the matter of knowing the German equivalent of a word and some basic grammar. I did not go down that path though :D English is my first foreign language and it is somehow more difficult to wrap a kid's head around it.

No, I had exactly the same experience. I am from Austria, but live in Transylvania so I very often have to travel through Hungary and also here in Transylvania it is useful to know the language, so I started to learn it a bit. But you really have to completely change your way of thinking, because Hungarian uses such a different logic than the one we are used to - us indo-european speakers. I also noticed that they very often build sentences without a verb, which is totally strange. They understand me, when I speak my broken Pidgin-Hungarian with our grammar logic, but they say the same things completely different.

@@ekesandras1481 I'm Hungarian and I find it intriguing how you described the Hungarian logic. We certainly have a very different mindset and logic; I only understood this when I reached advanced level in English. Although I don't know what you meant by "they often build sentences without a verb"... I don't think it's true. Sometimes there are lots of words at the beginning of the sentence to specify the topic, but eventually there's always a verb in the end. E.g.: Megannyi értelmes, okos és művelt emberrel találkoztam. It means that I've met so many different smart, intelligent and educated people... in which "találkoztam" is the verb I met, "ember" is people and the rest is just a quantifier and adjectives. Or the other thing you might have thought of was our 1-word sentences, which could be confusing for non-Hungarian speakers. Such as "Megvehetitek", meaning You can buy it.; or "Megjavíttatják" meaning They will get it fixed. But these are not sentences without a verb, these are actually conjugated verbs that carry so much meaning that make them valid sentences by themselves. Although I'm just guessing since I'm not sure what you meant by that. It was interesting to read about it, though.

Im hungarian and i neither understand the grammar 😂😂

Nothing simple about you. Poles are some of the very best people. They stand for what is right.

I read that finnish has the hardest grammar. Hungarian has 2nd hardest grammar after Finnish language.

@@PimsleurTurkishLessons really? I thought Sanskrit is the hardest among languages worldwide

@@NiceBoaT_98 in grammar?,different languages can be hard in different ways. for example chinese has (maybe the easiest grammar) but chinese is the hardest language because it has tones (there are other languges that have tones too). if you pronounce same word with different tone, it may have different meaning.tones are such as "goes up" "goes down" "straight" etc. Even if Turkish is agglutinative as Finnish,Hungarian,Korean, Japanese, which are considered to be hard, Turkish is very easy language maybe Turkish is easier than English. (or as easy as English).Some worldwide linguists that learned lots of languages, say Turkish is very easy to learn because it has few rules and rules are exact so there is not exceptions no need to memorize exceptions etc. ****************** there are more (i even did a video about it but i shared on this message only 2 of them. *Herbert Jansky: “Turkish language is an extremely rich and easy-to-understand, easy-to-learn Receiving the Babylonian World Award for speaking thirty-two languages, Belgium's Ghent University Center for Eastern Languages and Cultures, Dr. Johann Van De Walle explains why he is interested in Turkish today: “Turkish can be learned in a very short time. The rules in chess are logical, simple and few in number. Even a seven-year-old can learn to play chess. Despite this convenience, the person playing chess does not get bored throughout his life. The game possibilities are endless. It is a very magical feature that the same situation exists in the Turkish grammar system. Turkish grammar is a language that has a regular and unexceptional character almost as much as mathematics.

@@PimsleurTurkishLessons thanks for your info about Turkish. Actually I was interested in Turkiye long before too, but I didn't study it yet because of my lack of will. I'm planning to travel Turkiye next January, and it would be useful if I learn Turkish. It won't be challenging as Russian or Hungarian, right? :D *I'm planning as Ankara - Izmir - Bursa - Izmir - Edirne - Kirkralelli (confusing) course then straight up to Bulgaria and Romania. Are there more great cities that I don't know yet? (I can't travel Gazientep or Trabzon due to schedule problems. I'm planning to put Nemrut too. )

@@NiceBoaT_98 I have a video list named Türkiye. I put there videos of other channels (i did not uploaded them). There are touristic places and some cultural things (such as historical bird houses on Ottoman buildings' walls etc). ------ what makes Turkish easy to learn 1-Alhapbet ; Each Turkish letter has one exact sound and it does not change word to word. so once one learns alphabet, s/he can pronounce any Turkish text even if s/he does not know the meaning. and even s/he can write any Turkish word that s/he hears even if s/he does not know the meaning. 2- There is no gender in Turkish grammar and objects/jobs etc. English is nearly genderless language %90 , English has she/he,waiter, waitress, blond, blonde etc. But Turkish is %100 genderless language. 3-memorizing new words; once you know root word's meaning and suffixes meanings you can guess new word's meaning. to make a new word suffixes are used (not prefixes). for example bil=know bilgi=knowledge bilgili=informed bilgisiz=ignorant bilgisizce=ignorantly bilgisizlik=ignorance bilim=science bilge=wise bilgelik=wisdom bilgece=wisely bilimci=sciencist bilgilen=get informed bilgilendir=inform bilgilendirme=informing bildir=notify bildirim=notification bildirge=proclamation bilinç=the conscious/consciousness bilinçli=conscious bilinçsiz=unconscious bilinçsizlik=unconsciousness bilinçsizce=unconsciously bilmece=brainteaser bilgin=scholar biliş=cognition bilişim=Information technology There are more words that are made with "bil" root word but i did not write all. ***************** Turkish numbers are easy as English numbers numbers 1-9 each has one word example= bir=1 iki=2 üç=3 then 10-90 each has one word example= on=10 yirmi=20 otuz=30 yüz=100 bin=1000 üç yüz yirmi bir bin iki yüz otuz iki=321232 three hundred twenty one thousand two hundred and thirty two. to make order number we add only ıncı suffix acording to vowel harmony. birinci=first ikinci=second üçüncü=third to ask the nominal number we add ıncı suffix to Kaç (how many), so Kaçıncı=how manyth (this is fake English because English asks nominal number with Which word.)

You are right. You say something in hungarian, and someone asks why did you say it in that way? now that is challenging part of it!

True that haver :D

thank you for your comment. I fully agree with you. "Most of native Hungarians dont even recognize the power and beauty of it" - because most people don't care about it (not only here, worldwide I think), and, what is more important, they don't have an "outer viewpoint" to realize this (=don't speak other language). I only realized that it is accurate and sophisticated _after_ I learnt English. English sounds nice but it's not accurate to express yourself. (However, I can't deny that it has some advantages over Hungarian.) I've never known as native if my opinion is impartial or driven by national pride, so it is interesting to see that someone who is not native came to the same conclusion as me. Thank you. :) You have this same "listen as foreigner" viewpoint about Romanian. What is it like? I don't know a single word, I'm just curious how you would describe it. What things are worh mentioning? Of course, magyarul is írhatod, ha már egy nyelvet beszélünk. :)

Hi. I am American I learned Hungarian at about age of 6 and it took about 1/2 year. My father Attila was from Hungary and he sent for my grandma from hungary . when she 1st came I couldn't understand nothing then one day I noticed I was talking with her my grand ma. A Nagymamam. In Hungarian.

Do you still speak any Romanian?

Orbán would argue otherwise he says we are turks for some reason

You guys are Huns, brothers to turkic people @@spuditgang

​@@sluchy7962 our language sounds more uralic than turkic. Just by hearing alone, Finnish sounds more like Hungarian than Turkic. also our vocabulary is more uralic and we originate in ural mountains. This is subjective also but Hungarian sounds more beautiful than Turkic

​​@@spuditgangI would not agree with your claim that Hungarian sounds nicer than Turkish. Hungarian is sort of harsh phonetically in comparison to Turkish which is way softer in its sounds and sounds nicer indeed.

Your opinion is very unique. Most people try their english, and probably they get what they want. I appreciate your great effort, you are so cool. Thank you.😀

It's true, because the rarity of hearing a foreigner speaking a single word in hungarian.

next level is egészségedre

Seguindo o seu raciocínio, como não tem muitas pessoas que falam a língua fora do país, é pela mesma razão que a gente da Inglaterra e dos Estados Unidos não sabem falar nenhuma outra língua, pois pela falta de utilidade. Não dá para formar preconceitos irrazoáveis.

Now I'll be sure to learn a bit of Hungarian if i ever visit :)

Thank you so much Turkish brother. Big brother from another mother. Really!

Alien to English, please? Or is it gypsy to English?

And that's why its hella hard to teach it. I cant make parallels with other languages so its really hard to explain it to others.

It’s like teaching a Samoyed to guard your supper dish, though .... I suppose it’s technically possible, but ... unless your supper’s a soup of sour cherries, that Samoyed will be off with it, rotting teeth and all.... it’s called ‘caries’.

i'm Attila Tóth-Péter (Tóth-Péter Attila

Great quote. If I remember correctly. Teller Ede (Edward Teller) also concluded that, If his native tongue was English, he could only be a physics teacher in middle school. Many scientists claim that language is important. I do also believe that we think as we speak, meaning how we can express ourselves is the way we think. That's why so many Hungarian inventors and discoverers have been or are, I think. Because of the different way of thinking. But it can be a curse sometimes, because we overthink problems. That's why I suggest to study English at least on a basic level like I do, because many times the solution is the simplest. English is great because it gets to the point, although you can use fancy words too. My father also has an example to present the two languages. -Put a ketchup bottle in front of a Hungarian and an English speaking lad. Then ask them simply "What is this". The Hungarian will explain: "This is a red Ketchup bottle with added spice, made in Europe with a green cap to visualise a tomato." Also mentioning the brand. While the English: "Ketchup." Both are right, neither wrong. But different. Greetings to you all. Bojler eladó.

espranto has same quality than hungarian and esperanto is more easy than hungarian (because is more regular)

It's mainly due to the vowels imo. In Hungarian phonology, vowels are almost exclusively monophthongs, while English is littered with diphthong or even triphthong vowels. This makes English sound floaty and fluid, whereas Hungarian and the Black Speech sound sharp and segmented.

@@UnstopablePatrik Some consonants also, correct? For example, 'zg' in your name is also present in "Nazgul". But I'm sure it's only sounds, as you point out. Tolkien was into the Old Germanic languages, he probably knew little of real Hungarian.

Well, that's interesting because it's also written in a similar script to the Orkhon, right? And Orkhon has the the word "orc" in it. o_o ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED! Jokes aside, this might be true. I also heard that the directions on the map of Middle Earth kinda align with Europe's, so orcs coming from the East matches up with Hungary being in Eastern Europe and nomad Hungarians coming from the Middle-East. Also, the word "orc" may come from "ogre" which is said to have originated from the French word "hongrie" for nomad Hungarians who would go killing and looting all over the place back in the day. On the other hand, when I listen to LoTR in English, black speech sounds like Turkish to me. If someone tried to say all the phrases in a totally everyday voice without evil background music it would legit 10/10 perfectly sound Turkish, it even looks a little like written Turkish to me. I have to admit though that there is a little bit of Old Hungarian in there, stuff from the 12-14. century which is almost unrecognazible for a modern Hungarian.

ash-nazg durbatuluk :D és a többi

@@jcarty123 Lol, Mozgus is just a fantasy name, it has nothing to do with Hungarian :D 'zg' is not that common a combination.

Thank you for your kind comment. Greetings from Hungary to Taiwan.

Köszönöm kedves szavaidat!

Im learning some chinese now, and I can say, altought there is so much difference, but its not that much hard fro a chinese speaker, because of many similarity. Idioms are also very similar.

Hungarian, Finnish, Turkic languages used to be classified in a Ural-Altaic super language family.

I defenetly agree with you brother.

i am studying at hungary, budapest now. i found out that hungarian language like asian language. such as the way hungarian writing name. and the last i want to say is that hungarian language is the most difficult one in europe but when compare to chinese language, is nothing.

I am also hungarian and learned a lot from this presentation!

Two useless languages trying to communicate with each other. Lol

I was born in Canada and learned English at age 4. Parents sent me to hungarian school too so Im good at both.worked with a finnish chic for 15 years and everything sounds same but not meanings . We joked about it all the time. Also many hindi words similar like takaro is blanket in hungarian but in hindi the word Pakaro with a p start sounds like takaro but in hindi means hold it.

Such confrontations are very cool. Mongols and Turks may see such a thing too.

Same

its because even if words havent stayed like they have in finn, we put emphasis the same way finns do, so like that we think its hungarian but we cant understand a thing😂 i experienced it too, it was a bit frustrating🤔😂😂

True. I get that too every time I hear Finnish, Estonian or other Urali language spoken. (I'm Hungarian too.)

There is actually a game we call "eszperente", when you speak or write using words that only have the "e" and "é" vowels. Some can write several paragraphs of perfectly intelligible text without using any other vowel, although you have to get pretty creative with your choice of words. :)

Hungarian's meant to express nuances with ease! :P

What do you mean by "confusing grammar"? Maybe, someone could explain you what do you not understand and then you'll see that is not so "confusing".

I guess it seems confusing because he's talking about so many different things in such a short time. I can hardly follow the explanations myself, and it's my native tongue that he's talking about! LOL... Complex, yes, but it's pretty straight forward if you get into it step by step. :-)

@Charlie K Although Hungarian is considered to be part of the same linguistic family with Finnish, there is nothing to approach them, so it has nothing to do with Finnish language. We do not understand each other, nothing is in common. Complicated in Hungarian is primarily pronunciation, some vowels have no equivalent in Germanic or Latin languages. I'm thinking that here is the biggest difficulty. Anyway, specific to this language is the phonetics and vowels harmony,

:D

What language do they speak?

Of course Kazakh and Russian.

@@Vestergaard11 torkish language Ana Baba Ata

@@Makechannel17 Baba is not Turkish. Ana and Ata are Turkish.

Why do you have slovak word in your yt handle tho? Whats the background there if I may ask? I am not aware that there is "šikmooký" in any other language (well, Czechs say it the same I guess, so there's that).

It would be in your best interest to start thinking in Hungarian everyday in every though and also by immersing yourself into a Hungarian enviromment...

My take on this that the problem is the fundamentally different logic which is difficult to switch to if you're so used to the "indo-european" logic (especially Western European languages that use no cases anymore). When you create an English, French or Dutch sentence you have a relatively fixed word order and can chain words together based on a template and just switch out words according to your intentions. In Hungarian when you start making a sentence you already have to account for emphasis, the object (definite/indefinite conjugation) and cases while at the same time maintaining vowel harmony and proper affixation. I can perfectly imagine how hard it can be. But you can do it! Keep it up!

@@NavyCook08 I totally agree but easier said than done :)
