        It is very difficult to keep up with The Hungarian language. All of our relatives are deceased now. But many years ago, our grandparents were trying to learn English. Hungarian was not offered in Grade School.

          Szia Peter,

          Magyarora minden nap nem eleg nekunk! We have been studying every week for the past 5 years but are only at A1+ level. I do duolingo every day but it is only a very small supplement to learning.

          I believe that immersion is the best way for me! Az anyanyelvem magyarul, but at 5 y/o I lost it all when I started school. So when I finally come to Magyarorszag I want to go to the felvidek to be immersed in the language and culture. If I go to Budapest then people will want to speak angolul.

          Reading is the easiest for me, then writing; speaking and listening are more difficult because I am “translating in my head” what I want to say or hear. This interferes with conversational fluency because it slows down the pace. I must “think in Hungarian” to overcome that slowness.

          A tanarnom keeps telling me to memorize dialogue but I resist that. However, she is wonderful and so patient.

          Any thoughts for the “magic bullet” to learning?

          Lajos
