Hah random hungary facts go: Hungarian is an agglutinative language which means we form much more of our active grammar with affixes than english for example. This means you can sorta just glue stuff together. "Inni innivalót": to drink a drink; "enni ennivalót": to eat food. But this also means you can for example form something like: "elintézni az elintéznivalót" which means "to deal with the thing that has to be dealt with". These are all nouns formed from verbs but you can also do the opposite by forming a verb from a noun "titkot titkol: hides a secret"(lit.: secrets a secret). Thank you for reading another of my linguistic rants 👍
