Keresgéltem, de nem találtam, viszont ez elég jópofa:

http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Hungarian_proverbs

Nem gondoltam volna, hogy ennyit lefordítottak.

[Raven]

hát egy direkt fordítást találtam én is, de kétlem h használják. szerintem csak le lett fordítva h õk is értsék.

"If there is no horse, a donkey will do as well."

"Nézd meg, hogy a tûzfaladnál véletlenül nem tagadtad-e meg a hozzáférést az "atlanticarun.exe" fájlhoz, mivel az az oldal, ahová az autopatcher mutat normálisan mûködik"

Nagyjából ez a lényeg, szabadfordításban

Hi! I need some help with some english items.. please help!

(letudnátok ellenõrizni h helyesen vannak-e megfogalmazva?)

Daily Routine:

I usually wake up at 6:10 in the morning. I go to the bathroom, have a shower, brush my teeth and comb my hair. Then I have breakfast at 6:30. I leave the house at 7 o’clock. The school starts at 7:30. I usually have seven lessons in a typical Monday. These are Communication, P.E., Economics, English, Hungarian Literature, Maths, Typing. The last lesson finishing at 13:55. I have lunch at home. Then I have a rest, watch TV, play computer games. After that, sometimes I do my homeworks. When I’m ready, I play computer games again. I usually have dinner at 19 o’clock. At 22 o’clock I have a shower and brush my teeth. I go to sleep at 22:30.

My family

My name is XY. I’m 16 years old. My family lives in Mezõkövesd. There are four people in my family. We live in a big house with a big garden. My parents are divorced so me and my mother lives with my grandparents. My mother’s name is Marianna, she is a officinal assistant. She is short and slim. She has got short brown hair and green eyes. My grandmother is Anna, and my grandfather is László. They are retired. My grandmother is short and slim. She has got long grey hair and brown eyes. My grandfather is tall and he has got medium build. He has got short brown hair and brown eyes. They are very kind and generous people.

I am very lucky to have a wonderful family.

Thanx. :D

[Raven]

btw, officinal assistant = gyógyszertári asszisztens. (or is it not correct?)

It has got about ten million resident. ->residents, or you can say "The population is aprox. ten million."

There are some other notable cities, as like Debrecen, Szeged, Miskolc, Gyõr. Hungary has nineteen county. -> Don't know, sounds a bit wierd, but for one thing do not use "as" and "like" at the same time. It can be "such as" or "like" but not both. As for me, I'd rather say "There are other notable cities, such as..."

"a very diverse topographic feature." -> very diverse topographic features

"The highest mountain of Hungary is the Kékestetõ" -> The highest peak in Hungary is Kékestetõ, since Mátra is a Mountain and Kékestetõ is a peak.

"It is 1014 meter high." -> meters

Oh and avoid using "Hungary" too many times. You can say "this country" or other synonyms.

It may not be complete, but I tried to correct most of the mistakes if not all of them.

[Raven]

alright, corrected. :D

There is = there are

plain, hill and small mountain = plains, hills and mountains

Duna = danube

Will you do a language examination or something like that?

[USSRxHellknight]

Wow, I haven't realized that topic yet, but I've started to like it from the first time :-)

Unfortunately, studying for my school leaving exam (or shall I name it as graduation?) eats up all of my time, but I'll try to visit this topic as much as I can ^^

I saw a movie a few days ago in English. But in the movie wasn't any grammar thing. For example:"You looked in my hood?" or "We cool?". So it was a little bit strange for me. :)

thats the way english is spoken outside of hungarian schools.

[Hero44]

They(teachers) should teach us that English too. The English we learn in Primary/Secondary school doesn't prepare us too much to live in an English speaking country. Of course, we have to learn the basics but.... Luckily we have a lesson with a teacher from England every week, she's really cool and flexible and I really enjoy those lessons.

Whatever, Hungarian education FTW. :)

No school teaches you how to live in an English-speaking country, since there are more of them, not to mention the different dialects, even within the countries themselves :rolleyes: You have to move there to learn it properly.

Yes, we have a teacher from Chicago. She is very friendly. I think it's the best way to learn English but we have just one lesson a week. :(

[Sipres]

Our english teacher doesnt even give a damn what we do or what we dont she just leaves us alone ,put in a dvd than she has to "print out" something urgently or do similar bullshits and comes back after 5 minutes the lessons end :D
