 Far too basic... Feb 12, 2005
By R. Cole
....to be useful. Learn colors, time, food, and numbers, but you won't learn how to pronounce anything on your own or put a sentence together, let alone learn any meaning of the words in the few sentences they offer to teach. If memory serves you well, you can parrot the few sentences, but overall you'd be better off taking a bunch of pictures of the same items and pointing and grunting when it comes time to communicate. Also, quite a few of the words they want to teach you are english derivatives, like auto, bus, telephone, cola, etc. Save your money, find another resource. This is more game software than educational.

 Not Bad for an Introduction to Hungarian Jan 23, 2005
By Dallas Long
I wanted to refresh my Hungarian after being away from the country for a while. This is a good course for building a beginner's vocabulary. The interaction and the games are engaging and interesting, but the skill level was too remedial for me. I finished nearly all the lessons within 24 hours. I wish the lessons were more advanced like what the German and Spanish versions offer. My only real complaint is that the software introduces no grammar or conjugation, just word recognition and pronunciation.

vocabulary May 30, 2006
By Samantha
this program has lots of vocabulary, but will not help you any on grammer (which is a bigg thing) or sentences. it is great for just learning vocabulary and it is interactive but as far as communicating in sentences it is not good at all.
Do Not Buy This! Dec 03, 2007
By Thomas Squires
"Jack Flanders"
It won't function with Vista. They even admit it. I will tell you that you don't have a driver installed.
Not a primary resource Oct 17, 2007
By Budapesht
"Budapesht"
1. This is a very basic intro to the language, along elementary school lines.
2. The grouping of topics is a nice feature.
3. However, very clearly you will need an alternative resource for getting even basic concepts and phrases.
4. Given the above limitations, certain topics, like telling time, are nice via the use of repetition.
5. Most people looking for a crash course would be better suited to use an elementary text (online or book), "in flight" series for listening to and practising phrases for common situations, and a spoken dictionary (online like the Stazi version). After you get basic phrases/pronunciations, then use a phrase book, like lonely planet, to practice expanding practical conversation/language skills.
