BEGINNER'S HUNGARIAN >

Ten lessons provide an introduction to conversational Hungarian for students, travelers, and business people. The lessons teach basic language skills needed in a variety of everyday situations, including when introducing people, asking directions, eating out, and getting medical care. Introductory chapters discuss such topics as doing business in Hungary and the country's geography, history, and culture. Boros teaches at the Eurolingua Institute in Boulder, Colorado. Annotation c.
