  1. Can you translate the labels in that diagram? Please tell me that "Büntudat" doesn't mean "foot hair."

  2. Hmm...I can't tell you that "Büntudat" doesn't mean "foot hair," because I can't tell what it means.

    "Finom íz" probably means something like "tasty crunch" ("finom" is tasty, I'm guessing on "íz").

    "Keksz" means cookie (or "biscuit," according to the non-Americans at Lonely Planet).

    "Engedj neki" I think means something like "Indulge yourself" (literally, it's something more like "You have permission" or "Allow yourself")

    That's the best I can do. (And I appreciate that you probably weren't really asking, but you know me...) It is funny how much Hungarian sounds like the Black Speech of Mordor, though.

  3. Hm... Mordor ~ Magyar?

    I could imagine that. Isn't there some sort of early-20th-century-European-politics allegory swimming behind the races and clans of Middle Earth, anyway?

    As a so-called modernist, I should know more about this than I do.
