Start here: build sentences (word order + core patterns)

Learn the default word order and memorize a handful of high‑frequency sentence patterns.

Default word order

Hungarian word order is strongly shaped by topic–focus (what you emphasize).

  • Start with short sentences and keep the pattern consistent.
  • Copy a native pattern, then swap one word at a time.

Core sentences to memorize

These are extremely reusable. Read them aloud, then change one word (water → coffee, bathroom → station…).

Itt vagyok.
I am here.
Vizet kérek.
I would like water.
Nem értem.
I don't understand.
Beszélsz angolul?
Do you speak English? (informal)
Hol van a mosdó?
Where is the restroom?
Ez a barátom.
This is my friend.
