Welcome to 'Bridging The Linguistic Gap'

This blog will follow my attempts to teach myself and my children Hungarian. I am half English, half Hungarian and have longed to speak the language. Now is the time.

Maybe I've gone a bit crazy or got a bit over enthusiastic one day -when I decided to do this, but I really do think I can ... teach myself and also teach my children to speak Hungarian and connect with a part of our identities that is usually hidden.

keep your language alive... Speak it, Read it, Keep it - this is the slogan for my online bookstore - Mother Tongue Books. My store sells bilingual children's books, you can visit at the link below.

So now it's time to stop telling everyone else with a foreign connection to develop their mother tongues and start doing it myself.

I love you, example of lek / lak verb endings

When saying something directly from me - you, e.g. I love you verb endings only take either:


lak or lek e.g.
én szeretlek = I love you


lek also denotes the pronoun you, so no other clarification needed.


You cannot however use lak or lek endings if saying "you love me" it only works for me - you sentences.
