Wow. This guy has astonishing pronouncation. Not many can say that dreaded 'gy' properly. And that old Hungary brooch? Really kind of him to wear it. It's funny how americans see castles and forts as something extraordinary, while we just pass it with a shrug, saying 'I've seen thousands of castles like this.'
My beloved country I am proud of my birth country
Sidenote: the shoes are supposed to get cleaned the day before.
I like that Old Hungary badge. Also, not too many foreigners can pronounce Hungarian words.
Well done for that.
Mikulás is mainly for kids so after a certain age don't expect any candy in your shoes (though sometimes adults participate just for fun).
I never understood what is so special about 'gy'. If you say, for example, "duke" in english, you must pronounce pretty much the same tone (a 'gy') at the beginning of the word.
The Hunor-Magor story is a legend, the two guy representing two nations.
Magor -> magyar
According to our best knowlidge the hungarians started their great migration in the 5th century from the west side of the Ural mountain down to the Black sea and ~850 reached the Carpatian basin, occupied the land and 895 they settled in with Arpad as the leader.
Thank your old big hungarian brooch. It's meaning lot of us! Thnank You!
I loved your description. I would make a small correction if you allow me: the Statue of Liberty on Gellert Hill was indeed built during the communist dictatorship for the “Russian Delivery” from the Nazi occupation, however, Hungarians were never happy with the result of the delivery, because as an outcome we had live in a terrible dictatorship for 40 years. Of course the Nazis were not any better. The original statue used to be surrounded by a few soviet soldiers and after the regime change in 1989, they were removed. So the statue became just the symbol of freedom, as it had a somewhat neutral design; also, it was erected by a Hungarian sculptor, it wasn’t given by the Russians, so this connotation could be easily changed.
Notice the Big Hungary brooch on him. Never forget.
This man is a real American gentleman with class and culture.
Hianyolom magyarorsagot sajnos nincs penzem haza meni látogatni
Hol él kedves János?
Guys, there are different ways to keep your house reasonably cool during the summer unless you stay in in a flat in those prefab concrete blocks of flats.
I had to giggle a little about the air conditioner because my grandmother and mother believed and we never had air conditioner. The air conditioner was not added in my mother's house when I was 40.
Great pronouncation, im impressed. Well done. I hope one day you come back to us. Minden jokat.
We do have AC in shops and malls and most of the buildings in Budapest. We don't just walk into a building and say it's much better without feeling it. xD
*Does anyone here live around Zalaegerszeg? I moved from Germany to Zalaegerszeg but I don't know any young people around my age here..*
Love this guy pronunciation....👍
I like your pins Hungary before 1920.
In the 5th century, the Huns had a city here where Budapest stands, and even 400 years before, the town of Aquincum was built here by the Romans. So arguably it's 2000 years old.
we Hungarians don't hate air conditioning, it's just really expensive
Very nice young man. Good luck and I hope you'll come back and visit us!
The summers were not that hot decades ago
I am VERY IMPRESSED HOW GOOD IF NOT PERFECT YOU ALL PRONOUNCE THE HUNGARIAN WORDS WHICH IS NOT THE EASIEST AT ALL FOR IT'S MANY SPECIAL SOUNDS AND LETTER THEY HAVE FOR EACH.... AND THAN THE GRAMMATICAL IS VERY DIFFICULT AS IT CHANGE WORD BY WORLD
Very good pronunciation 👍
Bojler Eladó!
Great pronumciaton, so well done.
why Nimrod is a funny word?
Which one of two Georgias are you talking about? ;) The country between in the mountains of the Caucasus or the State in the US?
Hunnians + Mag(y/h)arians = Hun+garians, so technically the English (as well as the original Latin) term is melted the both nations into one. ;)
Pronunciation is on point... Nice man
Dude describes the Parthian shot, feel sorta bad he didn't know about it. But I love these videos even though they are from a missionary perspective. Even though I might not agree with what is being done, I do love the outcome that produces these very good videos with at least the opinions of people who spent a good length of time in the region. I deeply appreciate these
The Liberty Statue's design was originally made for the memorial of István Horthy and would in that role have featured a human child instead of the palm leaf that was a Soviet addition.
Go to New York and you will no about hit humid summer and sloshy , icy sidewalks
You speak really well.
wow I never heard people from abroad mentioning Nimrod ,,thx dude ,lot of good information here about us.
Wow for learning the language after age 20, your enunciation is excellent.
I really like that you pronounce the name of the capital and the name of the nation properly, Congrats!
Budapest was founded in 1873
A lot of people dont have AC's in Hungary beacuse they cant afford it, not beacuse of its negative effects on health.
Most corporate offices have AC, and more and more homes as well every year.
Ügyes kiejtés! 😁
Pécs. ok. 👍.
Thank you for saying correctly the name of PEST!!! S=sh and not 's' , like snake.
It is free to go on the Fisherman's bastion, I never had to pay...
Pécsett bojler eladó!
good guy
Hungarian is the second most difficult language worldwide.
First!
The reason Hungary 🇭🇺 has so many ethnicities is because of Atilla the Hun. The Huns were comprised of slavic Gepid “Germanic tribe” maygars which were probably what Atilla’s ethnicity was and turcik not necessarily Turkish but Turkic peoples. And after atilla died some of the Asians went to khazastan and the Slavic and Germanic as well as Magyar peoples dwelt in Hungary 🇭🇺 for the most part. Until Genghis Khan cane along.
