Kérdés Dirty talk

Hi guys, I’m a Hungarian who’s lived in England for a while now. I’m wondering how dirty talk sounds in Hungarian? I can think of a few things to say but they all sound very very vulgar to me? Specifically the phrase ‘I wanna fuck you so bad’ sounds just straight up like a douchebag thing to say if I say it like ‘annyira meg akarlak baszni’. Is there a more nice way to say it, or am I just misjudging the phrase because I don’t hear it said in Hungarian enough. I’m not sure if people understand what I’m trying to say, basically to me ‘I wanna fuck you so bad’ can sound sexy/romantic in English, but in Hungarian it sounds way too aggressive. Might be just me though.

Edit: Sorry, since when have people become illiterate? The first thing I mention in my post is how I’m Hungarian, insinuating that I have a good understanding of the culture and language. Why are people twisting my words to make it seem like I’d go up to some stranger and say I wanna fuck them? Where did that come from? Please have some common sense and stop projecting. It doesn’t take an Einstein to know that in any language, that isn’t appropriate. This is obviously with a partner, and to assume otherwise speaks more about you to be honest.

Hungarian dirty talk uses a lot of euphemisms and rarely use the word fuck.

Could u give any examples pls?

So if you want to have sex with someone you dont say: Megakarlak baszni, (I want to fuck you) you probably say something like, megakarlak dugni, or szeretkezni akarok veled Something similar to these lines, if I understand your question correctly.

I see now, based on this and other comments it seems that dirty talk in Hungarian uses less vulgar words and more romantic ones. I agree that it sounds way better and sexier instead of saying baz!

Context is king. There are times and places and people where meg akarlak baszni is absolutely acceptable and desired and appropriate to use. Sure, not the first couple intercourses but after a period when you already had sex, made love, fucked hard, had a quickie etc.

Yep, being rude to your gf isn't how you get her to take her clothes off

I hope you understand, I was aware that ‘Meg alarlak baszni’ sounded wrong, I just wanted to check it wasn’t only me given that I don’t hear it in media a lot.

u/Chirpy73 7d ago

I get it, megakarlak baszni does sound very wrong

Idk why but dirty talk in Hungarian sounds so weird for me as a Hungarian.

u/ConsistentMenu2847 7d ago

So I guess It's common among central-eastern European languages, because personally to me as a Pole dirty talk in Polish sounds weird and cringe lmao

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

Thank you! I thought it was just me. I think it’s also got to do with how we don’t hear it in media as much compared to English

Holy fuck i thought I was the only one as well. Almost any sexual thing said in Hungarian is ultra cringe, while in English it sounds smooth. I think this is no joke partly why dating is so aids here.

Talking about anything sexual or other related topics in my main language (Hungarian) just feels awkward enough that I just cannot get myself to do it.

Somehow, it feels way more comfortable to have these conversations in English, possibly because the closest people in family/the friend circle have far less likelyhood to come across it if written, or will not associate you with that information as clearly when heard.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

Perhaps it’s to do with culture or values? I’m not sure but for me personally, the only people who speak Hungarian around me are my family, and everyone else is English. Because I’m more likely to speak about vulgar things with my friends instead of family, maybe it being in English has made me more comfortable to hearing vulgar words in English rather than Hungarian, because I associate that with my family.

I think it’s also got to do with cultural differences of the two countries. I feel that Hungary in general is more conservative in those aspects

because dubs and subs in Hungarian = bad 👍

Depends on Your skills and your partner's. You can def tell a shitton of fucked up stuff to your partner (partners?) to tease her. If she is 1. Native 2. Into that

So you’re telling me that the average Hungarian person thinks that ‘Meg akarlak baszni’ is a sexy or even normal thing to say?

Edit: I think people are misinterpreting what I mean by ‘normal thing to say’. I obviously don’t mean it’s a normal phrase to use in everyday talk with strangers, I mean with a partner it’s not too aggressive sounding (relating to my original post).

u/nyuszy 7d ago

That's rather creepy.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

This person didn’t say anything useful. Obviously a partner who loves sexy talk would love anything that’s being said. Obviously if she speaks the language she’s going to understand it. I’m asking if in Hungary in general dirty talk is as common as in the western world, and examples of it. Nothing creepy here, just curiosity.

u/nyuszy 7d ago

I mean saying that to someone is creepy and I can't imagine any woman really wanting to hear that. This is rather a sentence from some drunken street fight and not from a bed scene.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

Some people are into that. Whilst I’ve never said or had it said to me,I feel that generally in English it isn’t that creepy when your partner says it. I’m obviously not talking about some drunk stranger in a bar telling you this. No one does dirty talk with a stranger, and even when they do with a partner, they would do it with one that enjoys that kind of talk. Why are u nitpicking this post? My question wasn’t whether it’s creepy in English, but whether dirty talk exists in Hungarian in a way that isn’t so aggressive and weird sounding, like in English. This isn’t for personal gain, I’m not going to ever use these examples. It’s a question about the language and culture.

u/nyuszy 7d ago

It's not creepy in English, it just require the right situation. I am exactly trying to say that I don't think it exists in Hungarian, because it becomes creepy.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

I think I understand what you’re trying to say now, that the phrase is too aggressive right? I feel the same way, are there alternatives to it?

u/nyuszy 7d ago

I have no idea tbh, for me even in porn movies sounded cringe.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

Fair enough, I’ve never watched anything like that in Hungarian so I wouldn’t know

That phrase can be used to your sexual partner. If you say to a stranger, it is very bad.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

I’m afraid that’s common sense

u/Ok-Pay7161 7d ago

I’m actually Hungarian, but I’ve only had sex with foreigners, so I can relate.

I think most people would say “megdug” instead of “megbasz” to sound less aggressive. I guess you could also say “nagyon kívánlak” or something like that to say you want someone, and it can sound sexy without sounding cringey.

u/NauticaChan 7d ago

Interesting, to me ‘megdug’ actually sounds quite funny and unserious. I think you’re right with the ‘nagyon kívánlak’, it sounds more sexy and genuine!

u/Expensive_Spread6521 7d ago

Kibaszottul kívánlak? Someone said this to me once and I think this was the sexiest dirty talk I’ve ever heard.
