Emotional verbs in Hungarian
Many Hungarian emotion verbs begin with the prefix meg-, which marks a completed action: megvígasztal (console), megbántani (offend), megalázni (humiliate) and megvetni (despise). This B1–C1 English–Hungarian deck also includes gyötör (torture), imádni (adore), félni (dread) and gyászol (grieve).
Vágyik stands for both yearn and itch; the card hints tell them apart: sóvárogva for yearn, alig várja for itch. The first five cards (torture, humble, smash, console, freak) open without registering, so you can hear how these heavy verbs sound before you commit.
