Qualities and characteristics in Hungarian
Many Hungarian abstract nouns are built with the ending -ság or -ség: kedves (kind) becomes kedvesség, szomorú (sad) becomes szomorúság and bizonytalan (uncertain) becomes bizonytalanság. This A2–B1 English–Hungarian deck uses them to describe people and situations, from őszinteség and óvatosság to valószínűség and nézeteltérés.
The word szalma is straw and sárgaréz is brass, which adds a few material words to the abstract ones. The abstract nouns that open the deck, the first five cards (charm, attraction, proportion, distinction, excellence), play without registering.
Who it’s for
- English speakers learning Hungarian who want to describe character and mood.
- Learners who spot the -ság and -ség pattern and want to use it.
