Old Norse.

Have you ever studied any of these languages?

I know that realistically I will never learn Hungarian in my life, though...

What about study it?

Hey, Luis, Hungarian is awesome You should definitely study it. I'm studying on Magyar OK and I'm on 3rd set of exercise books!
I also study with conversation partners, twice a week. Hungarians are adorable with foreigners!

Anyway, did you enjoy Budapest?
I'm also going to Hungary on the 7th of July with my husband and the 3 kids, I can't wait!

Is there a difference between "learn" and "study"? Cause I feel like you're making a distinction here, but I'm not sure, Vijay.

Yes, I know they can be used either synonymously, or to indicate a difference. I'm just not sure of Vijay's intended meaning.

You guys are not helping...

Anyway, did you enjoy Budapest?

Yes, it's a beautiful city. I enjoy most cities I visit anyway, I'm not too picky

Hungarians are adorable with foreigners!

This is purely anedoctal, but I didn't really get that impression. Some even tried to scam us a couple of times (increasing prices after figuring out we were foreigners, not giving the correct change, etc.). But I believe I would probably have a different experience outside of the more "touristy" areas.

You can study a language and not learn anything...

Yes. I wasn't sure whether he was saying he'd never even consider studying Hungarian or simply that he'd never get to a point where he speaks it.

That's like China and India.

Heeeey but why so hateful Vijay? Anyway when you wanderlust for a language, just wait for a few weeks and then it eventually fades away

I'm kidding. I'm still willing to make a study group for it.

[księżycowy]

As long as it doesn't subtract from our study groups, Vijay!

[france-eesti]

A study group for Hungarian? But who will be included? Nobody but myself studies Hungarian!
Maybe Luis?

[księżycowy]

Regardless, how dare you!

[vijayjohn]

Yeah! How dare I post more in our study group than you!

Wanderlusting for Hindi/Urdu for no reason.

There aren't that many languages I have wanderlusted for during the last few years. Hindi/Urdu, Persian, German, perhaps Indonesian -- that's about it I guess? I have a chance to learn all of them in my lifetime.

Wanderlust is a degenerative ailment. Expect the symptoms to accrue.
