    I dipped my toe into learning a bit of Polish which is considered damn hard but still not as hard as Hungarian. I noped out after a few weeks, even though I would still love to be able to speak it. I can’t even imagine how much of a pain it could be learning the top5-10 hardest languages like Hungarian.

    And, as the LanguageSimp puts it: there’s not much DLC that you can unlock with it.

      I’d believe the biggest (excluding English) DLC unlocks are:
      Chinese (dunno which dialect/version of it. Mandarin?)
      Japanese
      Portuguese
      Spanish
      And maybe some other overarching language that have commonalities with other language like a slavic language (afaik polish shares some words with russian or croatian?)

        Yes! I guess you could be successful with Arabic, too; I know it has its own dialects and accents, but still. Outside of Hungary, the only places you can use it is the border areas in neighbouring countries.

        BUT if you talk to a decent Hungarian in their own language they will self immolate from the awe (I would).

          Knew I forgot a major language tree. Yes Arabic and it’s various forms are certainly important as well. Certainly a rich history.
