Examples

“Én tovább jártam az iskola hatodik osztályát, persze nem gyónhattam meg a plébános úrnak, hogy milyen roppantul gyűlölöm. Meg azt sem, hogy almaéréskor a lungúj Bacsó Jóskával egy holdvilágos estén meglátogattuk a kertjét.”

I continued to attend the sixth grade, of course I couldn’t confess to the priest how terribly I hated him. Nor that, when the apples were ripening, we visited his garden one moonlit evening with the gangly Jóska Bacsó.

“Nagyot nyújtózik a sofőr. Lunguj, kicsit vékony fiatalember, mindig magas nyakú fekete pulóvert és cájgnadrágot hord.”

The driver stretches. A gangling, somewhat thin young man, he always wears a high-necked black sweater and cheap work trousers.
