I am having trouble making out her handwriting, especially since I am not good at my Hungarian anymore and can not place context. Thanks for your help!

How does a normal conversation in hungarian go? I mean the typical Hello between friends you meet on the street.

Hi all 👋🏼

Wondering if someone could translate this post card for me. It was found among my late grandmothers things. It has puzzled me for years. I wish I knew how to speak or write in Hungarian but unfortunately was not taught. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

hiya! i'm planning on buying an item in a game i like, but a previous owner named it "Gabozsvár", which i understand is hungarian. would anyone be able to help translate? i've checked a number of dictionaries and found nothing, but i have seen it used online in hungarian spaces.

Is there a Magyar slang word for "posh"?
I mean "posh" in the most pejorative sense possible.

Nagyon szépen köszönöm a segítséget!

Ungarn hilft.. 💪🏻😀

and how do you use it

Hello! I am looking into some hungarian documents about the founding of my parents' village from the Zarand county (edited). Apparently, Google translate has reached its limit regarding two words: homokzallassa and Mesterzallasa.

Does anybody have any clue of what these might mean? This is the entire text, for context:

"Samolkezy: Lakói vlahok, nem adnak censust és tizedet. Mesterzallasa, homokzallassa, eched: Szt. György, Szt. Jakab és Szt. Mihály napra közösen adnak censust, akó gabonát (akonalia) és szolgálnak."

Any suggestions appreciated!

szia!!

my hungarian is a little rusty- been living in the United States a little too long😅

i’m meeting with a friend who’s a little bit younger, and i want to properly ask her normal questions. any tips for not sounding like an awkward american?

Sziasztok!

Hogyan fordítanátok az áhítat vagy ájtatosság szavakat? Angolra, spanyolra vagy franciára, vagy akár csak magyarázat is jó lenne :)

Köszi <3

I hope this doesn't violate rule 3, I found them in an antiquarian shop and they should be from the first half of 1900 (I bought them because of the images on the other side btw)

Hello. I thought check or bill was számla and the copy or receipt was blokk. Whenever I buy something in Budapest they often say something like "tollat" and I say "what?" and they say "copy". Is it another word for it?

How would you translate " Anyád temetésén dudálj faszom öccse!"? From this video I'm native Hungarian but I don't know how shoud I translate this to English.

Hi all, my friend (from UK) is dating a Hungarian girl (let’s call her Jane) living in the UK. There is a lot of drama, as there’s kids and an ex husband and things are difficult. Jane is living with parents who won’t allow any male in the house, I think due to the previous drama with the ex husband who used to live in this family home. My friend is madly in love with Jane and would love to build a future together, but feels like he needs to speak to Jane’s parents, who don’t speak English. My friend would like to write a letter to Jane’s parents to explain his feelings and intentions in hopes that would allow them to spend time together. If we wrote a letter in English, would someone be so kind as to translate to Hungarian?

Szia! I am an American helping a friend translate family letters (3 pages of cursive). She has asked that I not post them directly, but if anyone would like to help I can message them. They were written in the 1940s between two Jewish sisters who had just survived the Holocaust in Hungary. Köszönöm szépen.

EDIT: solved! Thank you!

Hungarian speaker in an English leading language country:

For context, this is something my mom would say impatiently whenever I was zoned out and sitting on the bed doing nothing, when I should have been getting ready for school. As I sat staring, she'd snap her fingers in front of me to get my attention and say:

"ne ülj jegybe gyűrűbe! "

Now I am fluent in Hungarian and speak it almost exclusively with my parents and grandmother... and I knew she (literally) was saying something along the lines of "don't sit (ticket?) (Ring?) ". I also knew this metaphorically meant something like "stop sitting around" . I'm just curious if anyone knows what the phrase litetally translates to and why it became a saying/what it means figuratively. I believe i am close but missing information.

Thanks in advance! Köszönöm szépen mindenkinek :)

My grandmother grew up in a Hungarian-speaking Jewish household in Austria and was sadly the only member of her family to survive the Holocaust. I recently came across letters written to her by her parents shortly before they were murdered. We would love to know what they say, but nobody in my family speaks Hungarian anymore. They're handwritten, and it's been difficult for us to even transcribe them. I would really appreciate it if any of you would be willing to help transcribe and/or translate the letters. It would be amazing to be able to read even just one of them.

Thank you so much in advance for your help!

It is about shoes. Google translated it as: wine❓, black✅, novel⁉️

Hogyan fordítanátok magyar nyelvű önéletrajzba a 'consultant' munkaköri megnevezést? A tanácsadó kicsit furcsán hangzik nekem.

I found an old banknote belonging to my great grandfather, and I need help translating the signature on it. (I know names don’t translate but I’m hoping to know which letters these are). I did look up the Hungarian cursive alphabet, but I am so unfamiliar with the language that I couldn’t decipher a few of the letters. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sziasztok!

Akarok magyarul magyarázni, hogy egy pizzát főztem, de nem vagyok biztos a szavakről, amiket használok, így nagyon szeretnék a segítségeiket! Vannak hibák?

Szia, ma este akarok pizzát enni, / Tonight I want to eat a pizza

így egy tálban lisztet és sót keverek. / So I mix some flour and salt in a bowl

Egy másik tálban meleg vizet (körülbelül harminc fok) és élesztő keverek. / In a second bol I mix lukewarm water (at around 30 degrees Celcius) and yeast

Akkor rizsszirupot is hozzáadok. / Then I add some rice syrup

Ha nincs rizsszirupja, lehet cukrot hozzáadni / But if you don't have any rice syrup, you can as well use sugar

(a cukor etet az élesztőt). / (The sugar feeds the yeast)

Az élesztővizet a lisztbe öntöm és keverek, amíg a pizza-tészta már nem tapad a tálhoz, de ne öntsön egyszerre túl sok vizet, mint csináltam. / I pour the yeast water to the flour and mix until the pizza dough doesn't stick to the bowl anymore, but don't pour too much water at a time like I did.

Öt ezer év dagasztása után, a pizza-tésztát készen van, egy ruhaayaggal fedezem és félreteszem / Five thousand years later the dough is ready, so I cover it with a cloth and set it aside

Időközben vágom a gombákat és a koktélparadicsomokat / Meanwhile I cut the mushrooms and the cherry tomatoes

Egy óra után a pizza-tésztát egy visszahazom, lisztet és a pizza-tésztát egy tányérra rakok. Őt dagasztam, amíg a tészta van az ugyanaz alakja, mint a tányér / I bring the dough back one hour later, I put some flour and the pizza dough on a plate and I knead it (the pizza dough) until it has the same shape as the plate

Öntöm a paradicsommártást, a sajtot, a spenótot, a gombákat és a koktélparadicsomokat. / I pour the tomato sauce, the cheese, the spinach, the mushrooms and the cherry tomatoes

A pizza a sütőbe tizenöt percig kétszáz Celsius fokon! / To the oven for fifteen minutes at 200C

Tizenöt perc után a pizza kész van! / Fifteen minutes later the pizza is ready!

A sajt nagyok folyós! / It's so cheesy!

Köszi szépen a segítségeikért!

How do you translate "Megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért"?

Looking for the proper translation of nurse (noun). Online, I've seen both ápolónő and nőver ( which my book uses as 'older sister). Is one more old fashioned or are they used interchangeably?

Text: Tehetséges bohóc vagy, jót nevetem igazi kupleráj rengeteg porfogóval, kacattal mintha mindent vas villával raktak volna be....

Google: You're a talented clown, I laugh a lot, a real couple with a lot of dust, with a laugh as if everything was put in with an iron fork....

Thank you!

Edit: the translations and comments below have been incredibly helpful! Now knowing what the person was trying to say and knowing the context of the video, this is my English interpretation of what the reply meant:

You are funny, I had a good laugh. A real mess with a lot of junk that looks like it was just thrown in.
