While word order matters, even if you switch it up people will still understand what you are trying to say, I myself do it often as a native speaker, in both languages, especially since i use english more than hungarian, the "downside" is you will just sound more like Yoda.

[@jccbm]

Yeah, English word order is quite set, altering it is mostly poetic and artistic. But that's one the advantages of noun cases, in English "The boy eats the cheese" and "the cheese eats the boy" are two completely different things, while in Hungarian you would still know who really ate what.

[@zoltan.rozgonyi]

I watched your fourth video in the past few days. I have to say, I have never seen anyone who could grasp and sense the rules of the Hungarian language as quickly as you. Hungarian is an incredibly logical language and at the same time one of the most flexible in the world. Its grammar is highly structured, but much more complex than in other languages in general. The word order of sentences carries additional layers of meaning. The further forward a word is in a sentence, the more emphasis it carries. What is more important from a semantic point of view is placed earlier in the word order. It can be very difficult to understand and sense this for those whose native language is not Hungarian. So, congratulations on your achievements. It's impressive how you do it. And as a Hungarian, these videos are incredibly entertaining. Thank you! Keep up the good work. And I wasn't just referring to Hungarian. You produce very entertaining content. Respect!!

In Hungarian with word order you can define what you want the weight to be put on. You can specify the importance of things but actually many times they mean totally different things: A kutya húst eszik. = The dog is eating meat. Húst eszik a kutya. = It is meat that the dog eats (and not something else). Eszik húst a kutya. = Meat is something that the dog eats. Like you specify that it is a normal thing for a dog to eat meat... why wouldn't it eat meat? A kutya eszik húst. = The dog eats meat. Could be when someone offers you meat and you respond with saying that it is not you but dogs that eat meat. Also with what intonation you say one sentence matters too, they can alter the meaning.. But as a foreigner you can get away with not being able to conjure up a sentence with exactly the right word order for that exact thing you want to say or correct intonation. We will read from the context. Hungarian is a pretty "natural" language, it is more intertwined with reality.. I guess. I have no fcking clue what i am talking about.

[@jccbm]

Wow those are great examples. It's so interesting though. In English you would probably use some sort of tone to make the differentiation, or completely change the sentence or even just use facial expressions.

[@Kasamori]

Hungarian word order is (Topic +) Focus + Verb + Everything else A kutya húst eszik = Speaking about the DOG (topic), MEAT[acc] (focus) EATS (verb) This is either the default sentence OR a reply to someone questioning whether the dog's food consists entirely of meat Húst a kutya eszik = Speaking about the MEAT[acc] (topic), the DOG (focus) EATS (verb) This is a reply to someone questioning who eats meat (this is the same as the fifth one, but it sounds like "ACHCKCHUALLY") Húst eszik a kutya = MEAT[acc] (focus) EATS (verb) the dog This is a reply to someone asking what the dog doin' Eszik húst a kutya = EATS (focus and verb) meat[acc] the dog This is a reply to someone who questions whether dogs eat meat A kutya eszik húst = the DOG (focus) EATS (verb) meat[acc] This is a reply to someone asking who eats meat I can only hope that I haven't made a mistake somewhere Edit: I have.

"Living Ironically in Europe" made a good video on why you shouldn't learn Hungarian and gave a good explanation on the word order / sentence format.

11:25 you can basically interchange the words within a sentence but you are saying differint things. For example if you say "szeretem a sajtot" you are affirming that "I like cheese" but if you say "a sajtot szeretem" that means that you put a contrast, a reference that you like cheese RATHER than something else. Same for the first sentence "finom a sajt" = "the cheese is delicious" vs "a sajt finom" = you highlight the cheese to be much more appropriated than something else. Hope this makes some sence in this hard language.

To be honest duolingo is on crack... As a hungarian I would say, duolingo makes learing hungarian way harder then it should be. Especially words...

[@bucsuakos4007]

First of all I excitedly cheered on along with you. Thank you for this video. You don't want to know this, but the hungarian sentences have diferent meanings based on the order of the words. Aaaand also the meaning can change based on wich part of the sentence is stressed. So you have a sentence that is written. Based on that you cannot be sure what the other person means. We analyse sentences in school. We analyse poems in schools. Here is an example (sorry): Iskolába mentem. (no stress) I went to scool (once or with the purpose of going to school). Iskolába mentem. (stress on "iskolába") I went to school (e. g. not to a hospital, once or with the purpose of going to school). Iskolába mentem. (stress on "mentem") I went to scool (e. g. I wasn't carried, once or with the purpose of going to school). Mentem iskolába. (no stress) I went to scool (in my life or in general). Mentem iskolába. (stress on "mentem") I went to scool (in my life or in general, but I reassure you that I did do so). Mentem iskolába. (stress on "iskolába") I went to scool (in my life or in general, not e. g. to a hospital) I am 67% sure that that is correct. Also the I is locked in "mentem", but you can "free" it and you can play with it or regret that you were born in Hungary at a grammar test. Again: sorry! If you are still here, here is a cookie. It is elutasíthatatlanul jummy.

[@palizerart6846]

At 15:51 the word order is wrong because although it doesn’t metter at most cases, when it comes to questions or negatives, the word order changed the meaning slightly. You have to take into account what the “nem” is referring to. The negation should be next to what we deny. The sentence is denying we are inside but not that we are chatting. So “nem” and “bent” sticks together. “Nem beszelgetek bent” means when im inside im not chatting.

[@davidsiska5550]

Man, you are a legend. Not just because you put so many effort to learn, but the video edit with all those meme snippets, flawless. And as others already said, you pronounced most of the words perfectly. You can clearly see now, that Hungarian is so different than other languages and why it is hard to learn, but it is true for the opposite direction too, we have difficulties to learn other languages for the same reason. E.g. in English, if we overcome the non gender neutrality and the fixed word order, it is still confusing how to pronounce some words, since we have phonetic alphabet, and basically what you see is what you get. Of course International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) can be handy, but it would be much easier to read what you see and don't think about how to pronounce it. Why on earth the word "color" written with "c" if you pronounce it as "k" and why on earth the "w" exists if you pronounce the same as "v"? It seems redundant and doesn't logical at all.

These were the first videos I saw from you, and it was extremely entertaining! :D Because of the difficulty and uniqueness of hungarian, it is also hard for us to start learning new languages. Everything is just so dissimilar, and has completely different rules, whereas if you already know English, all the other germanic languages are way easier for example.

I am Hungarian but this took me a minute 😂 I had to sound it out

[@SerowyKról-CheeseKing]

Believe me, Klingon will be MUCH WORSE

[@jccbm]

What makes you say that? 😔

[@mohaa556]

Congrats man, you got through it better than most would have. Hungarian has quite the reputation for being really hard to learn, but watching all 3 vids I have to say you did quite well. As for your question on word order, yes you can kinda mix and match, but putting something forward is often used for emphasis, for example: Keresek egy autót - I am looking for a car. Egy autót keresek - A car is what I'm looking for

[@hyper_banner]

If only I was there during the stream. I could've told you that cheese is "sajt" in Hungarian. Anyway, good job for learning like, not even a tenth of the language! 👍

[@akosfarkas5586]

Its big brain language! You get smarter while learning or trying!🤣

[@etruscanetwork]

15:17 Klingon is not actually as hard as it seems to be, it's just different, but once you get þe rules you can learn it easily So esperanto easy, hebrew hard, klingon somewhere in þe middle

[@jccbm]

Nice "þ", Icelandic?

[@etruscanetwork]

@@jccbm Nah, it's þorn

[@B2BWide]

@@etruscanetwork Don't speak about thornography! ;) @jccbm You've absolutely nailed it, dude! The Hungarian course is spoilt by those exreme sentences that are gibberish even if you understand every words. The levitating kindergarten teachers and the postal workers (postmen, guys! Postpersons if you want to be so funky PC!) make it so extremely difficult. These examples even ruin the learners' ability to pay attention to the structures they learn. When the course started I tried to give some support but even I was confused by the sentences that had nothing to do with any kind of real world scene or usability. Thinking funny helps learning. But thinking stupid doesn't.

[@Eliean77]

This was a fun series to watch :) Your pronunciation is good. /Just sent the links to my native English speaker boyfriend :DDD

[@mrvktr7044]

You definitely werent prepared for Hungarian :D Its so funny how our language is so unique, yet you can imagine how hard it can be to learn another language for us. Good job tho!

[@veghadamvok]

That was the best video i have ever seen. I love this shit sentences because doesn't make sense in hungarian and english too. You have a very good pronunciation except the letter "a". But that is normal. I hope you will love this language because i want more videos like this. That was the easiest part in hungarian. We have a lot of thing that we dont know because doesn't make sense.

[@martesz55]

We are all proud of you ❤️🇭🇺

[@gergoerdelyi536]

Yes, hungarian language is very flexible wiht the orders of the words. It is only dependent on what do you want to highlite in the sentence

[@potatosalad68]

Great editing

[@Gezajozsi]

Proud that you pushed through... Duolingo is a nice introduction to any language, but yeah... Hungarian be a B in the A. Now time to watch you do Hebrew (studied that one too back in the day and hated that one just as much... hard AF)

[@kea4570]

Underrated 💯/10

[@feedbackpack]

I was missing the Hungarian horntail from the Harry Potter memes, but all in all good job!

[@KekPafrany]

I appreciate your endurance. It was a hard work. And the word for cheese is 'sajt' in Hungarian.

[@applehun22]

nice vid man it was funny hearing you as a native speaker MAGYARORSZÁG!!!!

[@martongorombei711]

tetszik a próbálkozás de 17 év alatt nem tudtam megtanulni a saját nyelvem én sem, de sok sikert

[@tovarishchfeixiao]

17:24 Uh for a moment i thought he said sooomething very different from "kórházak" what i can't even type down because the youtube rules. X'D

[@jccbm]

No worries, I'll Google it to see what you mean

[@oxtcn]

​​​@@jccbmYou made the ó sound more like a u, and so it sounded a little like the start of the words for ladies of the night or houses if ill repute.

[@Lazaccsi]

If no one has told you about word order yet, please read this: You put emphasis on what is important in your sentence. I give you an example from your video. Szeretem a sajtot - I like cheese means: That you LIKE cheese. The focus is on the act of what is your opinion of cheese. A sajtot szeretem - I like cheese means: CHEESE what is you like. The focus is on the type of thing you like. A better example for this structure is this: A sajtot választom - I choose the cheese. CHEESE what you choose over all the other stuff, the main hero here is the cheese. The confusion you feel is because in both sentences CHEESE is the OBJECT of the sentence, but the EMPHASIS / the TOPIC is entirely different. Most Hungarians put this emphasis to the beginning of a sentence with the word they want to emphasize. If you learn this language, you should do this too. I hope I could help you get a glimpse of this at least, or anyone else who tries their hardest to learn this language. Good luck!

[@jccbm]

Thanks for the explanation! Very useful

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

This is only true to an extent: even English changes the sentences based on emphasis but that's more about adding or removing words than changing their order. Szeretem a sajtot. - I like cheese. A sajtot szeretem. - Cheese is what I like. This is mostly because in Hungarian a lot of words or parts of words used for grammar are often invisible or are a part of another word whereas in English they usually are all present and stand apart.

[@MilesPlaysPriv]

To answer your question yes, format is VERY flexible, it usually just changes the emphasis slightly. Hazasétálok a kutyával (I'm WALKING HOME with the dog) vs A kutyával sétálok haza (I'm walking home WITH THE DOG).

[@whoxistxnde]

In Hungary in school we have a whole subject for hungarian grammar and oh boy we suffer too😂😂 although its our mother tongue its so confusing bc we dont really have rules just exceptions😂

[@hbg8418]

11:25 Yes, it's very flexible, but it also changes the meaning a little.

[@thorin1045]

yes, the word order is not fixed. the first word is the most important in the sentence, so you can move around the words (or just leave them out) to shift the relevant one to the first position. of course this is not a free for all, but it feels like if you accustomed to strict ordered languages like english or actually most of them. also i feel it would be better if it pushed the various suffixes and their meanings instead of hope you catch on that they do the same thing in every word. at least so far it does not really revealed the fact that you can use multiple suffixes on the same word, transforming it even more. and in multiple i mean almost as many as you like...

[@aronhajnal29]

when I was in third grade, one of my friends had more mistakes than the number of words the teacher dictated

[@viktor4000ify]

Native speaker here: Yeah, you are correct. The format is indeed flexible, depending on the emphasis.

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

Nice going! Duolingo is weird in one case: when you speak in general, in English you say "I like apples" not "I like the apples". However, in Hungarian saying "Én kedvelem almákat" isn't correct, so you say "Én kedvelem az almákat" but then you can see that the "az" doesn't need to be translated to English, yet Duolingo insists it should be.

Great video, very talented!
