===Conversation=== *Hungarian (person, language): {{Lang|hu|magyar}} {{IPA|[mɒɟɒr]}} *Hello!: **Formal, when addressing a stranger: "Good day!": {{Lang|hu|Jó napot (kívánok)!}} {{IPA|[joːnɒpot ki:vaːnok].}} **Informal, when addressing a close acquaintance: {{Lang|hu|Szia!}} {{IPA|[siɒ]}} {{Lang|hu|Szia}} is a version of the Latin origin loanword [[Servus]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nyest.hu/hirek/latin-szolgak|title=Latin szolgák|website=Nyelv és Tudomány|author=Kálmán László|date=7 September 2010}}</ref> *Good-bye!: {{Lang|hu|Viszontlátásra!}} {{IPA|[visontlaːtaːʃrɒ]}} (formal) (see above), {{Lang|hu|Viszlát!}} {{IPA|[vislaːt]}} (semi-informal), {{Lang|hu|Szia!}} (informal: same stylistic remark as for "See you" or "Hello!" ) *Excuse me: {{Lang|hu|Elnézést!}} {{IPA|[ɛlneːzeːʃt]}} *Please: **{{Lang|hu|Kérem (szépen)}} {{IPA|[keːrɛm seːpɛn]}} (This literally means "I'm asking (it/you) ''nicely''", as in German {{lang|de|Bitte schön}}. See next for a more common form of the polite request.) **{{Lang|hu|Legyen szíves!}} {{IPA|[lɛɟɛn sivɛʃ]}} (literally: "Be (so) kind!") *I would like ____, please: ''{{Lang|hu|Szeretnék}} ____'' {{IPA|[sɛrɛtneːk]}} (this example illustrates the use of the [[conditional tense]], as a common form of a polite request; it literally means "I would like".) *Sorry!: {{Lang|hu|Bocsánat!}} {{IPA|[botʃaːnɒt]}} *Thank you: {{Lang|hu|Köszönöm}} {{IPA|[køsønøm]}} *that/this: {{Lang|hu|az}} {{IPA|[ɒz]}}, {{Lang|hu|ez}} {{IPA|[ɛz]}} *How much?: {{Lang|hu|Mennyi?}} {{IPA|[mɛɲːi]}} *How much does it cost?: {{Lang|hu|Mennyibe kerül?}} {{IPA|[mɛɲːibɛ kɛryl]}} *Yes: {{Lang|hu|Igen}} {{IPA|[iɡɛn]}} *No: {{Lang|hu|Nem}} {{IPA|[nɛm]}} *I do not understand: {{Lang|hu|Nem értem}} {{IPA|[nɛm eːrtɛm]}} *I do not know: {{Lang|hu|Nem tudom}} {{IPA|[nɛm tudom]}} *Where's the toilet?: **{{Lang|hu|Hol (van) a vécé?}} {{IPA|[hol vɒn ɒ veːtseː]}} (vécé/veːtseː is the Hungarian pronunciation of the English abbreviation of "Water Closet") **{{Lang|hu|Hol (van) a mosdó?}} {{IPA|[hol vɒn ɒ moʒdoː]}} – more polite (and word-for-word) version *generic toast: {{Lang|hu|Egészségünkre!}} {{IPA|[ɛɡeːʃːeːɡyŋkrɛ]}} (literally: "To our health!") *juice: {{Lang|hu|gyümölcslé}} {{IPA|[ɟymøltʃleː]}} *water: {{Lang|hu|víz}} {{IPA|[viːz]}} *wine: {{Lang|hu|bor}} {{IPA|[bor]}} *beer: {{Lang|hu|sör}} {{IPA|[ʃør]}} *tea: {{Lang|hu|tea}} {{IPA|[tɛɒ]}} *milk: {{Lang|hu|tej}} {{IPA|[tɛj]}} *Do you speak English?: {{lang|hu|Beszél(sz) angolul?}} {{IPA|[bɛseːl / bɛseːls ɒŋɡolul]}} The fact of ''asking'' is only shown by the proper intonation: continually rising until the penultimate syllable, then falling for the last one. *I love you: {{Lang|hu|Szeretlek}} {{IPA|[sɛrɛtlɛk]}} *Help!: {{Lang|hu|Segítség!}} {{IPA|[ʃɛɡiːtʃeːɡ]}} *It is needed: {{Lang|hu|kell}} *I need to go: {{Lang|hu|Mennem kell}}
