We went out into the streets of Budapest and asked Hungarians:

These Hungarian words might sound completely strange, even if you already speak some Hungarian 😅

In this video, we share funny and unusual words from our home region in Hungary. These are the kinds of expressions you won’t usually find in textbooks.

It’s spontaneous, real, and a bit chaotic, just how Hungarian actually is in real life.

Have you ever heard any Hungarian words like this? Write it in the comments, I’d love to read them.

In this episode, I take you to a real Hungarian market in Kecskemét and ask a simple question: “What did you buy?”

• real-life Hungarian spoken at a natural pace
• common vocabulary related to food, shopping, and daily life

In this video, Csilla and Viki talk about some common Hungarian proverbs and explain what they mean in everyday life.

Hungarian is full of colourful expressions, and proverbs are a great way to understand both the language and the culture behind it. In this conversation, we go through several well-known sayings and discuss how they are used and what they mean.

Some of the proverbs we talk about:

• “Nem úgy van az, hogy gyere buci, hamm, bekaplak.”
• “Néz, mint borjú az új kapura.”
• “A remény hal meg utoljára.”
• “Türelem rózsát terem.”
• “Ki korán kel, aranyat lel.”
• “Sok kicsi sokra megy.”
• “Minden kezdet nehéz.”
  
  

If you are learning Hungarian, proverbs are a fun way to expand your vocabulary and understand how native speakers think and express ideas.

At the end of the video you’ll also see some funny outtakes from the recording.

💬 Tell us in the comments:
 Which proverb did you already know?
 Which one is your favourite?

Through short stories from my life, I reflect on well-known sayings such as “Better safe than sorry”, “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today”, and “Slow and steady wins the race”. I explain what these proverbs usually mean, and why I sometimes disagree with them.

Some of the sayings turn out to be true in my own experience, while others feel limiting or stressful in modern life.

In this episode. I talk about Valentine’s Day: who celebrates it, who doesn’t, and why. In the full version, you will hear different opinions. Some people think it’s romantic and helps couples stop and focus on each other, while others think, love is shown in small everyday actions, not on one special day. There are also simple ideas for celebrating without gifts or big spending: a nice walk, cooking at home, candles, music, or a cozy day together.

Yoga is extremely popular today, but it is much more than stretching and poses. 

In the full episode, I talk about yoga in simple, natural Hungarian: what yoga really is, why it is not only for women, and how it affects the body, the mind, and our emotions. 

You will hear about different types of yoga, how to start practicing, what equipment you really need (spoiler: not much), and why patience and regular practice matter – not only in yoga, but also in language learning. 

This episode is ideal for pre-intermediate Hungarian learners who want to improve listening skills, learn useful vocabulary, and reflect on motivation, stress, and self-care in Hungarian.

In this episode, I’m talking to Kacper, a Polish-Swedish language learner who started learning Hungarian earlier this year - because his mother-in-law doesn't speak English.
Kacper is living proof that if you focus on relevant, useful vocabulary and start speaking from day one, you don’t need years to have a real conversation in Hungarian.
We talk about his language journey, the challenges of Hungarian grammar, cultural differences between Sweden, Poland and Hungary, and how he manages to communicate after just a few months of practice.

This episode was produced at the request of a dear club member, Rafael. He asked me to talk about Lake Balaton and Hungarian fish. I thought it would be good to have some help with this topic, so I have my partner Edvárd with me, who is a biologist and he will tell us about this topic.

Have you ever wondered how my podcast is made? In this episode, I’m finally revealing all the behind-the-scenes secrets! 🤫

I want you to know that while you can listen to the episodes for free, a lot of work and costs go into making them. I produce the episodes in my free time alongside my other work, but software, hosting, and platform fees aren’t free. Every month, I pay for graphic design programs, podcast distribution, and even Ko-fi has its costs. Plus, achieving high-quality audio required an expensive microphone, which I was able to purchase thanks to the help of a generous former club member.

So, overall, this podcast - which you’re enjoying for free - costs a lot each month. I’m able to keep doing this thanks to the support of my club members, and I’m truly grateful to them. ❤️

If you’d like the podcast to remain available and you appreciate my work, please consider supporting it! You can buy me a virtual coffee on Ko-fi, subscribe on Buzzsprout, or join my club, where your support grants you access to exclusive content: full podcast transcripts, bilingual Hungarian-English texts, monthly online meetups, and much more.

Thank you for listening!

Mindig is érdekelt, hogy hogyan készül a podcastom? Ebben az epizódban végre lerántom a leplet a kulisszatitkokról! 🤫

Szeretném, ha tudnátok, hogy bár ingyen hallgathatjátok az epizódokat, a háttérben rengeteg munka és költség áll. Munka mellett, szabadidőmben készítem az epizódokat, de a szoftverek, a hosting, és a platformok használata bizony nem ingyenes. Minden hónapban fizetek a grafikai programokért, a podcast terjesztéséért, és még a Ko-fi is pénzbe kerül. Ráadásul a minőségi hangzáshoz elengedhetetlen volt egy drága mikrofon, amit egy kedves ex-klubtag segítségével tudtam megvásárolni.

Szóval, összességében sokba kerül minden hónapban ez a podcast, amit te most ingyen hallgathatsz, és a klubtagok támogatásának köszönhetően tudom ezt csinálni továbbra is, amiért nagyon hálás vagyok nekik. ❤️

Ha szeretnéd, hogy a podcast továbbra is elérhető legyen, és értékeled a munkámat, kérlek, fontold meg a támogatás lehetőségét! Küldhetsz egy virtuális kávét a Ko-fin, előfizethetsz a Buzzsprouton, vagy csatlakozhatsz a klubomhoz, ahol a támogatásodért cserébe exkluzív tartalmakat kapsz: az összes podcast átiratát, angol-magyar kétnyelvű szövegeket, havi online találkozókat és még sok mást.

Köszönöm, hogy hallgatsz!

In today's episode, I’ll be sharing stories about my special adventures in Greece. Before COVID, every summer, I used to spend three weeks in the mountains with a team of biologists searching for vipers. We lived completely offline, in tents, without electricity or shower facilities.

Soon, I’ll be heading off on a similar adventure again, this time with a camper van. If you’d like to support my camper van project, here’s how you can do it:

• Join my club, where you’ll get extra learning materials, podcast transcripts, and meetings to help you improve your Hungarian quickly and enjoyably: https://plainhungarian.supercast.com/
• Take part in my courses or book a private lesson with me: https://plainhungarian.com/

• Send a donation via PayPal: https://paypal.me/plainhungarian?country.x=HU&locale.x=en_US
• Send a one-time or recurring donation via Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/plainhungarian
• Send a one-time or recurring donation via Buzzsprout (in return, you’ll get a 28-page ebook): https://www.buzzsprout.com/2138870/subscribe

100% of the donations will be used to complete the caravan. Currently, the furniture is being built, but in addition, I will need a laptop because I currently work on a desktop computer and I cannot take that with me, and the gas and accessories needed for cooking are also waiting to be purchased. 

I am deeply grateful for your support in making my long-cherished dream come true!

In this video, I'll be showcasing the beauties and challenges of my past five years, with photos. I'll show you how we heat our home, where we get our water, what we use for lighting, how and where we go shopping, and why I love living here despite all the difficulties. I made this video because I really wanted to show how great it is to live in nature and to keep it as a memory for myself, because we won't be living here next year.

A videóban bemutatom az elmúlt öt évem szépségeit és nehézségeit, fotókkal. Hogyan fűtünk, honnan szerzünk vizet, mivel világítunk, hogyan és hova megyünk boltba, és miért szeretek minden nehézség ellenére itt lakni. Ezt a videót azért készítettem, mert nagyon szerettem volna megmutatni, milyen jó a természetben élni, és egyben eltenni magamnak emlékbe, mert jövőre már nem itt fogunk élni.

🇭🇺 HU: Reggeli agymenésem a mentális egészségről. Ez most kicsit strukturálatlan lesz, mert csak hagytam, hogy folyjon belőlem a szó, és direkt nem szerkesztettem a szöveget. Az volt a célom, hogy őszinte és tiszta legyen. Ebből viszont az is következett, hogy túl sokat időztem a mentális egészséggel kapcsolatos nehézségeknél, túl sokat általánosítottam, és nem maradt idő a megoldásokra és a pozitív gondolkodásra. De remélem, ettől függetlenül érdekes lesz ez az epizód, kíváncsi vagyok, mit gondolsz, milyen így a podcast, hogy nem volt egy előre megírt, tudatosan szerkesztett szöveg előttem.
Úgy gondolom, mindenki megérdemli, hogy jól érezze magát a bőrében. Ezzel az epizóddal szeretnélek arra ösztönözni, hogy gondolkodj el a saját mentális egészségeden és keress olyan megoldásokat, amelyek neked működnek, és ne félj segítséget kérni, ha szükséged van rá.
A podcast átiratról és a klubról itt találod az infókat: https://subscribepage.io/plain-hungarian-club

🇺🇸 EN: My morning brainstorm on mental health. This is going to be a bit unstructured, because I just let the words flow out of me and didn't edit the text on purpose. My aim was to be honest and clear. However, this also meant that I spent too much time on the difficulties of mental health, generalised too much and left no time for solutions and positive thinking. But I hope you find this episode interesting regardless, I'm curious  to hear your thoughts about the podcast with this more spontaneous approach without having a pre-written, consciously edited text in front of me.
I think everyone deserves to feel good about themselves. With this episode, I want to encourage you to reflect on your own mental health and find solutions that work for you. Don't be afraid to seek help if you need it.

HU: Október tizedikén van a Mentális Egészség Világnapja, ezért gondoltam, hogy most erről csinálok egy podcastot. Öt, különböző korú ember elmondja, hogy ő mit gondol a mentális egészség témáról. Szó van egészséges életmódról, jelenben levésről, arról, hogy soha nem elégszünk meg a dolgokkal, mindig többet akarunk, gyereknevelésről, kapcsolatokról, világutazásról, és arról, milyen az élet, ha az anyukád pszichológus. És nem, egyszer sem említettem a podcastban a meditálást vagy a jógázást! Semmi tanács, azon kívül, hogy utazni jó és próbáljunk meg a jelenben lenni. KLUBTAGSÁG   
EN: October 10th is World Mental Health Day, so I thought I’d make a podcast about it. Five people of different ages share their thoughts on mental health. We talk about healthy living, being present, how we’re never satisfied and always want more, raising kids, relationships, world travel, and what it’s like when your mom is a psychologist. And no, I didn’t mention meditation or yoga even once! No advice, except that traveling is great and we should try to live in the moment. CLUB MEMBERSHIP

Now I have a special celebratory episode for you, because it's the one-year anniversary of the Plain Hungarian Podcast and Klub! I asked the club members to send me summer stories, and I'm going to read them.
You can read the podcasts in the club and I'll also be doing an English-Hungarian word list for each episode, but the best part is the Hungarian lesson where we talk in small groups about the monthly podcast topic.
We also have a monthly Coffee Break (Kávészünet), where we have coffee, tea and talk in Hungarian. In the spring we also had live Coffee Breaks in a really cute café in Budapest, and I'd like to do that again in the autumn.
If you want to join the Plain Hungarian Klub and learn Hungarian with me in a fun and supportive community, go to https://plainhungarian.supercast.com/
The club has lots of useful teaching material, such as grammar explanations, slang, learning tips, podcast transcripts, word explanations, and of course the monthly Hungarian lessons and Coffee Break. In the past year, I have produced a lot of teaching material: the transcripts of the twenty-six podcast episodes are now over 210 pages long, and I have written over 1300 word explanations.

Imagine that a woman has to sell her jewellery to finance her medical studies. Why was Vilma Hugonnai, the first Hungarian woman doctor, forced to do this, and what social obstacles did she have to overcome? I present this fascinating story and the life of Mileva Marić, whose name is often overshadowed by that of her husband Albert Einstein. Both women struggled to find a place in academia and the world of science, and through their inspiring stories I shed light on the social challenges and prejudices of the time.

Képzeld el, hogy egy nőnek el kell adnia az ékszereit, hogy finanszírozza az orvosi tanulmányait. Miért volt Hugonnai Vilma, az első magyar orvosnő, kénytelen ezt megtenni, és milyen társadalmi akadályokat kellett legyűrnie? Ezt a lenyűgöző történetet mutatom be, valamint Mileva Marić életét ismerheted meg, akinek neve gyakran háttérbe szorult férje, Albert Einstein árnyékában. Mindkét nő küzdött azért, hogy helyet kapjanak az egyetemi oktatásban és a tudomány világában, és inspiráló történetük révén rávilágítok a korabeli társadalmi kihívásokra és előítéletekre.

Szia! I'm Csilla and this is the Plain Hungarian podcast for Hungarian learners.

In this episode, five people talk about the inspiring women they know. The reason for this topic is because there was Mother's Day recently. In the episode I talk about a wise grandmother, a physics sister, a single mom, a great Hungarian teacher and my mother-in-law. 😊

It's spring, the birds are singing, and unfortunately you can really hear the birds in the podcast, but I hope you don't mind.

• elfújja a gyertyát - to blow out the candle
• hullócsillag - shooting star
• hegyet mászik - to climb mountains
