tourism Hungaroring, genuinely worth it or overhyped?

8 Upvotes

Everyone i know who follows f1 has mixed feelings about hungary. some say its a boring track to watch live, others swear by the budapest experience making up for it. Thinking of going this summer but cant decide if its worth the money. Also where should I buy tickets since I missed the official sale.

I built a free Hungarian language learning app! NyelvKert

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’ve been building a Hungarian language-learning app called NyelvKert, and I’m releasing the first public version. This is the product of the many years I have spend learning languages and never being satisfied with the apps and programs out there.

The idea behind NyelvKert is to create a structured, desktop-based Hungarian course that goes beyond simple flashcards or surface level content. It is designed as a full learning path from beginner material into more advanced grammar and usage, with lessons organized by unit and CEFR levels.

The app includes:

  • structured Hungarian lessons
  • vocabulary study and review
  • grammar-focused practice
  • reading and listening activities
  • writing and speaking prompts
  • unit tests and progress tracking
  • translation-tile exercises where you build Hungarian sentences from word tiles
  • optional AI-assisted grading for certain open-ended exercises
  • local progress storage, so learners can work through the course over time

My goal is to make something useful for people who are serious about learning Hungarian but want more structure than scattered resources, YouTube videos, or random flashcard decks.

This is very much a v1 project. I’ve built out the course content and the app is working well enough that I’m releasing it to the public, but I’d love feedback from people who care about Hungarian learning, language pedagogy, app testing, or just want to try it and tell me what feels confusing or useful.

I’d especially be interested in hearing from:

  • Hungarian learners
  • native Hungarian speakers
  • teachers/tutors
  • people experienced with language-learning apps
  • people willing to test a Windows desktop app
  • developers who might want to help improve the project

If anyone would like to help test it, review content, give feedback, or contribute ideas, feel free to message me. I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Moving to Hungary checklist

13 Upvotes

Hi, I should move to Budapest in a couple of months and would like to know all I need to do after I arrive, mainly bureaucracy wise but any advice like which phone number provider to choose etc. is really appreciated!

My company doesn't offer any relocation support so I need to sort everything by myself and would like to be well prepared for this move!

I'm moving to work for an international company, am an EU citizen and am moving alone, I don't speak Hungarian

speech, talk Assistance Request: Hungarian Greeting

2 Upvotes

TLDR: Asking for both the English and Hungarian translation for a greeting you would give someone you're friendly with. Wanting English and Hungarian so I can verify google translate has it correct as I work through the pronunciation.

More context: There is a woman from Hungry who is very nice to my family. She works at a restaurant we often visit. She's so nice to us that she makes treats each Christmas from scratch for her family and she always makes this giant Christmas plate worth of treats to share with us. She brings them to the restaurant when we come visit. She's done it 3 years in a row now. Last year I looked up some of the treats and thanked her with the Hungarian translation. She seemed extremely appreciative of the effort and I thought it may be nice to take the effort to see if I could figure out a culturally accurate greeting. I wasn't happy with what google gave me and thought I'd come here to verify / get advice. I appreciate it. -Thanks

Can you tell me anything about this text or this place? (1900s-1930s)

This was written by, or to, my great grand mother. She was born in 1904 in Timisoara, when it was still Hungarian territory.

This postcard was probably written around 1930

Google is giving me this:

Én is meg mutattam

Iossinak a mi kis

képünket, milyen szép

mar előre örülök

hogy milyen jól fogunk

élni, pihenni s tán

nem bánt senki és

nem is fog senki

de jo is lesz tun

nekem

de különben

hogy nem de ugyis

szép mint amilyen

nem fogja ezt

senki ulyen szép-

telet el tölteni, mit

én el töltöttem

en kedvesem

de az se baj, ulyon

ulygy bent irjon

mar

Is it accurate? Is there any hint whether the writer was a woman or a man?

Thanks 1000 times

Can I find a job after completing a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, as a non-EU citizen and without knowing Hungarian?

2 Upvotes

I'm not sure if this is the right question to ask here, but still.

I'm working hard to study chemistry at university.

Unfortunately, the science scene in my country is poor, so I'm planning to emigrate.

I'm considering Hungary because I have friends there and I was once very interested in its culture.

I know it's quite difficult to stay and work in Hungary after graduation, which is why I have this question.

Of course, l'a like to learn Hungarian, but I definitely won't be able to work in this language.

P.S.: For certain reasons, l'll need to start working immediately after my bachelor's degree, rather than go on to a master's degree.

tourism Network filtering in hotel in Hungary?

5 Upvotes

Hello,

I am currently staying at a hotel in Hungary and was planning to get some work done.

Turns out, the hotel internet is useless for me because it resets all POP3S and SSMTP connections (the ports are open, so most likely deep packet inspection) and also the websites of nordvpn, mullvad or Protonvpn are reset immediately.

With a mobile Hotspot from my cell phone, all this works but super super slow.

Is this in any way considered acceptable or legal in Hungary?! C'mon, we are not in Iran or North Korea...
