    In today’s episode, I’m sharing the childhood dreams I had about my future job, like I wanted to become a baker, surrounded by the warm smell of fresh bread. I also talk about a few jobs I would never want to do as an adult (spoiler: anything underground and anything involving needles is a strong no from me 😅).

    And if you’re curious what other surprising career path I imagined for myself as a kid…
    👉 You can hear the full story on Supercast.

    A light, relatable episode about childhood dreams, growing up, and how our ideas change over time. Perfect for learning vocabulary about jobs, preferences, memories, and everyday life.

    Szia! I’m Csilla from Plain Hungarian. In today’s episode, I’m sharing an important update: after two years, 55+ episodes and 40,000+ plays, the Plain Hungarian Podcast is moving to a new home on Supercast and becoming part of my membership.

    I explain why I made this change, how the new platform works, what remains free, and what extra content members get (full episodes, transcripts, vocabulary lists, and weekly small-group speaking practice, and more) .

    You can still listen in your favourite podcast app, and you can try everything on Supercast with a 14-day free trial, completely risk-free: plainhungarian.supercast.com

  • #58 HU-EN Can you really learn to speak Hungarian after just 25 lessons?
    Nov 7 2025

    In this episode, I’m talking to Kacper, a Polish-Swedish language learner who started learning Hungarian earlier this year - because his mother-in-law doesn't speak English.
    Kacper is living proof that if you focus on relevant, useful vocabulary and start speaking from day one, you don’t need years to have a real conversation in Hungarian.
    We talk about his language journey, the challenges of Hungarian grammar, cultural differences between Sweden, Poland and Hungary, and how he manages to communicate after just a few months of practice.
