Alright! You have selected "I like it simple!" Today we'll begin with greetings and formality along with some question based stuff to say!

Szia means Hello, you already know this. The more formal word for 'Hello' is Sziasztok to address those older or younger than you this is a way to show respect to the young kiddos and to the elders in your time in Hungary.
Now we move on to other ways of greeting, when saying someone 'good morning' we say "Jó reggelt!" which is a way to greet friends who woke up just up to 11 AM to ask their morning.

We use "Jó napot!" to say "good afternoon" as a formal greeting after 11 AM to a friend or someone close you met in Hungary.

Now we move to how you say "good night" or "Jó éjszakát!" in Hungarian when saying good night to a friend in Hungary.

Those were the greetings, now to formality! When you introduce yourself you will use;
"Mi a neved?" which means "What is your name?" in English, when meeting with strangers in Hungary you can say "Mi a neved?" when you meet someone.

"Én [insert your name here] vagyok" means "I'm [insert your name here]" after someone asks you "Mi a neved?". This is another formal greeting. For example "Én Csango vagyok" means "My name is Csango", this is a great way to introduce yourself to people.

"Örvendek" means "Nice to meet you", when you had a nice conversation you can use "Örvendek" as a way to say that it was a nice conversation and it was a pleasure to talk to the person in the convo. You don't really need to use this outside of the elder folk but still kinda wanted to say it.

"Hogy vagy?" means "How are you?" to ask someone their day. The more formal version is "Hogy van".

"Köszönöm jól. Es te?" means "I'm fine, and you?" after someone asks "Hogy vagy" to you about your situation as you chat.

"Kérem" means "Please" which can be used either at the beginning of the sentence of what you want to say or at the end.
For example;
"Kérem hozzon egy menüt?" which means "Please bring me a menu."

"Köszönöm" means "Thank you". This is a very common way to say "thank you." There are different levels to say thank you so you can add an extra word in front or at the end and/or both ways. So for instance, "nagyon köszönöm" means "thank you very much."

"Szívesen" means "You're welcome". Say this after you hear someone saying thank you to you, when you were happy to help out or give them something and then you just say "szívesen".

"Igen" means "Yes", this can be used for questions and such like:
"Szereted a macskákat?" which means "Do you like cats?" and you can say "Igen." to say "Yes".

Well that covers our first basics of Level 1, some time later we'll do the second basics of Level 1! Happy to help you EK.
