I regularly visit Hungary on vacation and for work, and every time I try to get into a bit of the local language, I fail miserably. Its the sort of language I think you really, really have to prepare to learn - with books, media, movies, etc. - long before you try to speak it with others. That said, it is indeed one of the most beautiful languages I've ever heard (and I've travelled around the planet 3 times so far) - I have to say that it is also very, very interesting to travel Hungary with zero understanding whatsoever of the road signs and other public information. Thank goodness a lot of Hungarians speak German ..
