learning Hungarian. it's awful.
it's an agglutinative language which means words get built from pieces into massive monstrosities. prepositions become prefixes and suffixes. everything gets different endings depending on what part of the sentence it is (nouns alone have 18 cases, each with a different conjugation.) but wost of all, most verbs can be either definite or indefinite depending on whether the action is transitive or intransitive, and whether the object is direct or indirect. naturally, each case takes a different conjugation. in the sentences "i bought cheese" and "i bought this cheese", the verb 'bought' takes different conjugations! oh, and did i mention that Hungarian has 14 vowels!? (a, á, e, é, i, í, o, ó, ö, ő, u, ú, ü, ű)

it's awful because it's a very difficult language to learn, and i don't particularly want to learn it. but i married a Hungarian and moved to Hungary, so that's the way of the world

I just read up on Hungary in general, and I have to say that this portion of World history is the most interesting to me. While speaking it isn't my thing, living there must be cooler than hell. Thats Cradle of Civilization territory.
