Mum! They've broken the language again!

Hungarian is a bloody pain in the situpons. A lovely example of how broken it is is this grammatically and almost sensible sentence:
Miraculous curiosities of the Hungarian language ‹ Daily News Hungary[^]:
Te tetted e tettetett tettet, te tettetett tettek tettese.
Totally ridiculous and means "You did this pretended action, you, the delinquent of pretended actions." It does get worse, if you read down. :laugh:

When you start adding all the prefixes and suffixes to a word things can get *really* complicated. It's like German would be if German could only grow up and really go for it in building composite words. :laugh:

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch It's pronounced just like it's spelt, I'm told. That's quite a relief... :~

To be fair English has some of those weird sentences as well Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo[^]. Also shame on them for leaving the phrase árvíztűrő tükörfúrógép out. :laugh:

Hi Nagy, Greets from a country where "mai mai mai mai mai," can mean "new wood doesn't burn, does it ?" Or, "pom ma" can mean "I came/am coming/will come," or "I'm a dog." These choice words from Hungarian are wonderful, could you please record yourself speaking them slowly, and post links to the audio files here :) cheers, Bill
«In art as in science there is no delight without the detail ... Let me repeat that unless these are thoroughly understood and remembered, all “general ideas” (so easily acquired, so profitably resold) must necessarily remain but worn passports allowing their bearers short cuts from one area of ignorance to another.» Vladimir Nabokov, commentary on translation of “Eugene Onegin.”

Typical. All other languages have words for "Cheers" that people can actually pronounce when they're sloshed. Leave it to the Hungarians to be different... ;)
