"Thank you for your help." "You speak English well." HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #1 - HOW TO SAY THANK YOU! IN HUNGARIAN 2 Nagyon melegem van itt benn. Ez nagyon drága. "I am too hot in here." "It is very expensive." GRAMMAR Wherever your destination may be, manners are a must! And in this respect, Hungary is no different. So in our very first lesson, we'll be teaching you a simple phrase that is bound to come in handy throughout your trip to Hungary. I can't stress this enough: a little a bit of language can go a long way! In Hungarian, "Thank you." is Köszönöm. Let's break it down by syllable kö-szö-nöm. Now let's see it one more time Köszönöm. You can emphasize köszönöm by adding szépen, which means literally "nicely, well." You could say Köszönöm szépen, which would be equivalent to "Thanks a lot." a more polite expression than just köszönöm. Again: Köszönöm szépen. Let's break it down by syllable Kö- szö-nöm szé-pen. Now let's see it once again: Köszönöm szépen. In Hungarian, there are other ways to express one's gratitude, but they are all variations using köszönöm, which is a verb, and the adverb szépen, which can make the construction more formal to mean "thank you very much." There will be occasions where you will really want to show your appreciation and politeness. During occasions such as these, you can use the adverbs nagyon and szépen. "Thank you very much" in Hungarian is Nagyon szépen köszönöm. Let's break it down by syllable Na-gyon szé-pen kö-szö-nöm. Now let's see it one more time Nagyon szépen köszönöm. The first word nagyon, "very," is used to make the phrase very formal. This is followed by szépen köszönöm, which literally means something like "thanking you in a nice way." Now let's hear it one more time Nagyon szépen köszönöm. CULTURAL INSIGHT HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #1 - HOW TO SAY THANK YOU! IN HUNGARIAN 3 Quick Tip 1 By far, köszönöm is the most common way to say "Thank you." Use the most formal version nagyon szépen köszönöm sparingly, only in very formal situations, like when extending your visa or handling some other kind of official problem in a government office. Remember: when in doubt, keeping it simple is always your safest bet. You don't have to worry about formal or informal situations; köszönöm can be used with just about anyone, anywhere, and anytime. You say köszönöm when the waiter brings your food or drinks; when the clerk in the hotel takes your luggage to your room (of course, throwing in a tip won't hurt either!); and when somebody welcomes you, or congratulates you. No matter his/her profession or age; köszönöm or köszönöm szépen will always be an appropriate response. Quick Tip 2 If you are around friends, you might hear shorter versions of köszönöm, like köszi, or even kösz. Both of these mean "thanks" or "cheers"; they are very informal. If you know the people well enough, feel free to throw one of these in—your knowledge of informal Hungarian will surely be appreciated.

IN HUNGARIAN 4 LESSON NOTES Survival Phrases S1 #2 Say You're Welcome in Hungarian CONTENTS 2 Hungarian 2 English 2 Vocabulary 2 Sample Sentences 3 Grammar 3 Cultural Insight # 2 COPYRIGHT © 2012 INNOVATIVE LANGUAGE LEARNING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. HUNGARIAN 1. Szívesen 2. Nincs mit. 3. Nagyon szívesen. ENGLISH 1. You're welcome. 2. It's nothing. 3. You're very welcome. VOCABULARY Hungarian English Class You're welcome/I like/I'm Szívesen happy to expression nagyon very adverb nincs nothing/ there isn't/don't have adverb mit what? (accusative) adverb SAMPLE SENTENCES HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #2 - SAY YOU'RE WELCOME IN HUNGARIAN 2 Szívesen olvasok. Nagyon melegem van itt benn. "I like reading." "I am too hot in here." Ez nagyon drága. Nincs kutyám. "It is very expensive." "I don't have a dog." Mit eszel? Mit kérsz? "What are you eating?" "What would you like to have?" GRAMMAR In this lesson, we'll continue to learn more phrases that will help you with basic etiquette. Hungarians are very hospitable. They use phrases of gratitude quite often. Even though you may not get the chance to use Szívesen (the phrase for "You're welcome") during your trip to Hungary, there's a very good chance you'll hear it. So let's have a closer look at it! In Hungarian, "You're welcome" is Szívesen. Let's break it down by syllable. Szí-ves-en. The word szívesen means, "You're welcome." You can also respond to someone who has thanked you by using two very similar expressions. They are Nincs mit, which means, "it's nothing," and Nagyon szívesen, which means, "you're very welcome." Nagyon szívesen, let's break it down by syllable. Na-gyon szí-ve-sen. You probably remember nagyon from our last lesson; it means "very" and it makes the phrase more polite and formal here. Remember, Nincs mit means, "it's nothing," and Nagyon szívesen means, "you're very welcome." Of the expressions we have seen, please keep in mind that we can use szívesen, and Nincs mit in any situation, formal or informal, while Nagyon szívesen tends to show up in more formal occasions. CULTURAL INSIGHT HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #2 - SAY YOU'RE WELCOME IN HUNGARIAN 3 Quick Tip 1 The word szívesen has more than one use. We had a look at one of them today. When you want to say "you're welcome", szívesen can be used as a set phrase after köszönöm. The second meaning of szívesen is "enjoy doing by habit" or "I'm happy to" as in Szívesen sétálok. "I like walking" or "I'm happy to walk." Quick Tip 2 We have already seen two examples of the adverb nagyon, first in our lesson about thanking people and today in nagyon szívesen. It is usually placed before adjectives, and you can pretty much put it in front of any kind of adjective to mean "very." Try nagyon szép ("very beautiful") or nagyon drága ("very expensive").

VOCABULARY Hungarian English Class kérem please expression Legyen szíves Please (followed by a verb) expression ezt this pronoun azt that pronoun SAMPLE SENTENCES HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #3 - GETTING WHAT YOU WANT USING HUNGARIAN 2 Kérem ne bámuljon. (formal) Kérem nyissa ki az ajtót. (formal) "Please don't stare." "Please open the door." Legyen szíves csukja be. Ezt a könyvet kérem. "Please close it." "I want this book." Azt az inget kérem. "I want that shirt." GRAMMAR This phrase will help you take matters into your own hands! In today's lesson we'll take a look at the word "Please," which will be very important when you need to ask for something. In Hungarian, "Please" is kérem. Let's break it down by syllable ké-rem. Now let's hear it again kérem. Let's take a closer look at kérem. The easiest way to use this word is by pointing at something and saying Ezt kérem ("This one, please") or Azt kérem ("That one, please.") Let's hear them again Ezt kérem. Azt kérem. Please remember that in Hungary it is a little rude to point at people. But pointing at things, especially when you are trying to buy something at the market, or when it helps to illustrate your point, is perfectly okay. Just make sure you use köszönöm or "thank you" when the object is handed to you. Another translation of "please" could be the phrase legyen szíves. We use this phrase to ask someone to do something for us and it is usually followed by a verb. Let's see that again: legyen szíves. Break it down to syllables: le-gyen szí-ves. Here's an example: Legyen szíves adja ide ("Please hand it to me.") Legyen szíves adja ide. Here's another example. You may hear this at the airport: Legyen szíves nyissa ki. ("Please open it.") All of these sentences with the phrase legyen szíves are polite and formal. CULTURAL INSIGHT HUNGARIANPOD101.COM SURVIVAL PHRASES S1 #3 - GETTING WHAT YOU WANT USING HUNGARIAN 3 Quick Tip 1 We have learned the sentence Ezt kérem. ("This, please.") We may need to spend some time with the grammar here. The first word ezt ("this") is in the accusative. The easiest way to understand accusative case is to say that a noun is in the accusative if it is the object in the sentence.

  • Coherence Policy Markers for Psychoactive Substances
    Identifying effective approaches to creating coherent policies regarding SUBSTANCES POLICYCOHERENCE FOR PSYCHOACTIVE MARKERS licit and illicit drugs has been the priority of the Pompidou Group during its 2010-14 work programme. Over the years, research has evolved in COHERENCE POLICY this field as demonstrated in the group’s publications: From a policy on illegal drugs to a policy on psychoactive substances in 2008 and Towards MARKERS an integrated policy on psychoactive substances: a theoretical and empirical analysis in 2010, and then Reflections on the concept of coherency for a policy FOR PSYCHOACTIVE on psychoactive substances and beyond in 2012. This last publication attempted to put into perspective the salient points SUBSTANCES of what may be termed a coherent policy on psychoactive substances. It proposed six indicators, around which the concept of coherency was developed: conceptualisation, policy context, legislative and regulatory frameworks, strategic frameworks, responses/interventions and structures and resources. The initial target for the use of these six indicators is that all drugs policies should be in line with the concept of “well-being”. At the very least, they should not contradict each other and at best they should be in harmony. On this basis, in 2013 and 2014, researchers refined these indicators and tested them in their countries, namely Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Norway and Portugal to verify whether they provided a valid tool to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of a coherent policy on psychoactive substances. The results appear in this publication and indicate that such markers may be indeed used as a basis for discussion on the issue of coherence and in some cases as a means to better implement coherent policies in respect to psychoactive substances, and also possibly policies that address other forms of addictive behaviour.

  • Is Income Or Employment a Stronger Predictor of Smoking Than Education in Economically Less Developed Countries? a Cross-Section
    Leinsalu et al. BMC Public Health 2011, 11:97 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2458/11/97 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Is income or employment a stronger predictor of smoking than education in economically less developed countries? A cross-sectional study in Hungary Mall Leinsalu1,2*, Csilla Kaposvári3, Anton E Kunst4,5 Abstract Background: In developed European countries in the last phase of the smoking epidemic, education is a stronger predictor of smoking than income or employment. We examine whether this also applies in economically less developed countries. Methods: Data from 7218 respondents in the 25-64 age group came from two National Health Interview Surveys conducted in 2000 and 2003 in Hungary. Independent effects of educational level, income and employment status were studied in relation to smoking prevalence, initiation and continuation for all age groups combined and separately for 25-34, 35-49 and 50-64 years old. Absolute levels were evaluated by using age-standardized prevalence rates. Relative differences were assessed by means of logistic regression. Results: Education and income, but not employment, were associated with equally large differences in smoking prevalence in Hungary in the 25-64 age group. Among men, smoking initiation was related to low educational level, whereas smoking continuation was related to low income. Among women, low education and low income were associated with both high initiation and high continuation rates. Considerable differences were found between the age groups. Inverse social gradients were generally strongest in the youngest age groups. However, smoking continuation among men had the strongest association with low income for the middle-aged group.

  • Hungarian Trends and Gender Differences in the Global Smoking Epidemic1
    HUNGARIAN TRENDS AND GENDER DIFFERENCES IN THE GLOBAL SMOKING EPIDEMIC1 András Wéber ABSTRACT1 This paper analyzes whether developments in Hungary are in keeping with the trends of the process known as the “global smoking epidemic.” To this end, the comparative cases of the USA and Austria are used as a benchmark for reviewing the results concerning tobacco consumption and sex differences in mortality. A comparative analysis has been conducted using prevalence and tobacco-related mortality data in longer-term perspectives. The study analyzes the descriptive statistics of the smoking-attributable premature mortality trends in Hungary between 2000 and 2015 by sex, age, and cause of death, using the updated method of the American Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The results show that Hungarian men are suffering more destructive consequences of the smoking epidemic than American or Austrian men. Hungarian and Austrian women are half a century behind the peak of the epidemic in the USA, and the harmful effect is also smaller than in the USA. Nevertheless, we can also predict that differences by sex will decrease significantly in the future. Between 2000 and 2015, male smoking-attributable mortality declined in Hungary; meanwhile, among women it increased dramatically. As a consequence, in the over-50 age group, increasing tobacco-related mortality is holding back the improvement in female mortality. The key causes of death attributable to 1 Funded by the project entitled “EFOP-3.6.3-VEKOP-16-2017-00007 – Young researchers from talented students – Fostering scientific careers in higher education”, which is co-financed by the European Union (European Social Fund) within the framework of the Széchenyi Program 2020.

  • Thesis First Draft
    Mapping the Role of Basic Rights in the Hungarian Tobacco Control: Who should be protected? By Winne Ko Submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In Partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Judit Sándor Professor János Kis CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary (2011) Abstracts This thesis examines the role of basic rights in the Hungarian tobacco control policy which will be effective in January 2012. The author argues that in spite of the importance of the right to health advocated in this context by non-smokers, other actors’ rights should also be protected in the process of lawmaking. The research attempts to identify the various claims of rights which are at stake with the forthcoming ban and explore the possible conflicts arise from the legal policy. Four basic rights are at the core of the discussion: the right to health, the right to health care, privacy right and the right to information. Interviews were conducted with three groups of stakeholders (healthcare workers, the public and catering businesses) to connect the legal framework of rights and the empirical relevance. Opinion collected is analysed in relation to the different notions of rights. Further scenarios of special category of non-smokers (children, women and workers) are presented with respect to violations of their rights. The thesis concludes with a discussion on the limitations of the sole reliance on legal policy as an instrument for tobacco control and calls for a combination of interventions and respecting individuals’ rights. CEU eTD Collection i Acknowledgement The completion of this thesis would not be made possible without the immense support I gained from different people throughout the short period of time.

Aim: To report the results of a national representative survey on the prevalence of smoking carried out in 2007 and to compare the results of the present survey with those of former studies. Methods: The target population was the entire Hungarian population aged between 18 and 64. Net size of the sample was 2,710 persons. Data col- lection partly used face-to-face interviews and more sensitive issues were assessed by self-rating questionnaires. Results: The 36.1% of the Hungarian adult population smoke cigarettes (29.9% on a daily basis), 40.6% of males and 31.7% of females smoke regularly (rates of daily smokers are 34.6% and 25.3%, respectively). Male gender, lower age, lower education, lower socio-economic status, and parental smoking were identifi ed as risk factors for smoking. Conclusions: Present results show higher prevalence rates among the heterogeneous results of previous years, while suggesting a slight increase of smoking at the same time.
