    NUMBERS 1 is 3 and 2 is 3 and 3 is 5 and 4 is itself and 5 is 4... What is the rule behind this statement?

    I know that you know, but other readers probably don't. Every number in Hungarian is a word on it's own. So a number like 1,234,567 is written out as `egymilliókétszázharmincnégyezerötszázhatvanhét`. :-D

      Dyslexia or myopia. Maybe even some astigmatism thrown in for good measure. Take your pick (You should post this at a regular time every day, and preferably twice daily 12 hours apart, for those who sleep at the correct time. And in all seriousness this is probably the only 'of the day' I read)

      I post it when I have the time, and occasionally miss it (like last Thursday)... I have my own timezone, and sometimes I even sleep...

            Counting in hungarian is easy, if you know a billion [`milliárd`] that's it. You know as many hungarian words as you can count to. :) `egy` one `millió` million `két` two [short form of `kettő`] `száz` hundred `harminc` thirty [10, 20 & 30 have special numbers] `négy` four `ezer` thousand `öt` five `száz` [hundred] `hat` six `van` [-tens 40-90 are the number followed by `van` \ `ven`] `hét` seven Add in `nyolc`[8], `kilenc`[9], `tíz`[10] and `húsz`[20] and now you can count hungarians! [results may vary, always read the label]
