  • Description


    I would like to learn Hungarian. My parents immigrated to Philadelphia from Hungary. When I was a child, I knew Hungarian, but as I began school and especially after my parents' divorce, they ceased to speak Hungarian to us. They wanted us to do well in school and my father had an American girlfriend, who he didn't want to offend by speaking a foreign language in front of her. Since then, I have not spoken Hungarian. I know how to count to 39 (only because I don't know how to say 40, 50, etc.)and I know how to say 'yes' - igen and 'no' - nem. That is it.

    Last year my father passed away. Although my sister and I tried to convince him to find his family in Hungary, he had no desire. So, this past weekend, my sister called me and told me that my father's nephew (our cousin) contacted her on facebook. I didn't have a facebook account, but I created one right away and he contacted me as well. He doesn't speak English, so he must use a translation software to translate what we write to him and to translate what he writes to us previous to sending it.

    After opening the facebook account, I have also been contacted by my mother's Hungarian friends. She is currently in Hungary. My point is that now I have so many reasons to learn Hungarian. I'd like to visit my father's family someday and be able to communicate with them.

    My only setback is that I need to be able to learn in the evenings or weekends, since I work during the week. Please contact me, I'm really excited to learn Hungarian.
