Hi, everybody! |
Do you know how to say “Bye” in Hungarian? In this lesson, you'll learn three parting expressions in Hungarian. |
Let’s start with the easiest one. |
Viszontlátásra |
[slowly] Viszontlátásra |
This means "Goodbye" in Hungarian. |
We can use this parting expression at any time of the day. The first half of the word, viszont, means something similar to "again." The second part, látásra, means "seeing you." |
If you want to say "bye" at night, there is a different phrase you should use. |
Jó éjszakát |
[slowly] Jó éjszakát |
This means "Good night" in Hungarian. |
When parting or saying goodbye at night, Jó éjszakát is the most appropriate choice. |
If you want to sound more casual, here's a phrase for you. |
Szia |
[slowly] Szia |
This means "bye" in Hungarian. |
If you're talking to one person, you would use szia, and for plural subjects, such as a group of your friends, you would use szaiastok. You can use both of these for "goodbye" as well. |
Let's wrap up this lesson by recapping what you've learned. Listen to the words and repeat after me. |
"Goodbye." |

Well done! [pause] Here's a fun fact! |
