Our Heritage Connections LIVE discussions today were on language. We had some great conversations in both sessions. We started talking about resources and so here is a place to share your favorite tips and resources for learning Hungarian. So, please share the things that have been most helpful to you in your language learning journey!

I wouldn’t have thought, even a year ago, that I’m going to say this but … AI! This is a very fresh experience for me: my 22 year old son who is my youngest and speaks very little Hungarian planned a trip to Hungary for this summer. Communicating with relatives was an intimidating task for him as he was trying to connect with them, so he procrastinated a lot, but finally figured out that if he writes his emails in English AI can translate it for him, and I have to tell you, it’s not bad at all! I was surprised by how his emails sounded like they were written by a native Hungarian! Well-structured, sophisticated sentences with correct grammar. I’m very impressed!!!
It’s not a problem for me to go back and forth in between English and Hungarian, so I haven’t been in need of a resource, but this would be my newest and most effective source for learning or communicating for those who need one.
