DUTCH VOCABULARY

SPEAK FLUENTLY ABOUT ANY TOPIC

HOW TO SPEAK (REAL) HUNGARIAN

Building a strong vocabulary is the cornerstone of mastering any language, and our Hungarian Vocabulary Section is designed to help you express yourself on a variety of topics. There’s no point in memorizing grammar if you don’t know what things are called, so we recommend that you begin your Hungarian language journey right here. You can also explore specific Hungarian words and expressions in our Culture section.

On this page, you’ll find the essential vocabulary to get started. Our vocabulary lists are carefully curated to cover a wide range of themes. Learning the most common 2000 words will allow you to understand about 80–90% of everyday spoken or written material, assuming you already have a basic understanding of grammar. Languages follow the so-called "Pareto Principle" (80/20 rule), where a small portion of vocabulary covers the majority of real-life communication.

Begin with Useful Expressions, mastering key Verbs, Adverbs, and Adjectives that form the foundation of daily conversation. Move on to practical categories like Numbers and telling the Time, which are vital for scheduling and understanding context. Talking about your Family, describing Colors, Shapes, and Sizes, or ordering Food and Drinks helps you interact naturally. Topics like Clothing, Weather, and Travel bring vocabulary into real-world experiences, while Law, Jobs, Shopping, and Health reflect daily needs. To go further, explore interests through Hobbies, Education, and Nature, or navigate modern life with terms related to Home, Technology and Feelings. For more specialized or advanced vocabulary, delve into Sports, Animals, War, and Politics—and understand even the informal side of the language with a dose of Swearing.

For now, we suggest you read the words several times a day so that you can recognize them when you come across them in a conversation or a text. Learning Hungarian vocabulary will be a bit easier if you already know another Ugro-finnic language like Finnish or Estonian. Be sure to check out the Loanwords at the end if you want to speed up the memorisation process even further. After this, you can move on to the Grammar section, where you’ll see these words in action.

Politics in Hungarian

grayscale photo of a glass window
grayscale photo of a glass window

Dutch profanity is generally direct, earthy, and strongly influenced by diseases, sexuality, and bodily functions. Unlike many languages, Dutch cursing frequently uses references to illnesses (“kanker,” “tyfus,” etc.), which carry very strong emotional weight. Sexual and bodily insults also exist, but disease-based curses are considered among the harshest. Social context is crucial: words that occur casually among close friends can be extremely offensive or socially unacceptable in public or formal settings.

Godverdomme goddamn it
One of the strongest and most classic Dutch curses. Blasphemous; offensive to many.

Godver damn
Milder shortened version. Common expletive for frustration.

Verdomme damn it
Slightly softer than “godverdomme,” but still rude.

Kut cunt / fuck
Very common, extremely versatile. As insult (Kutwijf! bitch!) or as intensifier (Kutweer! shitty weather!).

Kutmorgen / kutdag shitty morning / shitty day
Colloquial intensifiers.

Klootzak asshole / bastard
Insult implying someone is malicious or mean.

Eikel dick / jerk
Common insult, literally “acorn,” figuratively “dickhead.”

Lul dick
Used to insult stupidity or incompetence (Je bent een lul! You’re a dick!).

Lulhannes / lamlul idiot / useless dick
Colloquial variants.

Lul de behanger “decorator-dick” – stupid jerk
Humorous but insulting.

Sukkel dummy / fool
Mild insult; common in everyday speech.

Idioot idiot
Derogatory but not obscene.

Klootviool ball-violin → bastard / jerk
Older humorous insult; vulgar but less harsh.

Trut bitch (mild)
Often directed at women; rude but common.

Kuthoer fucking whore
Very strong insult; considered extremely offensive.

Hoer whore
Harsh insult directed at women.

Mietje wimp / sissy
Mild derogatory, historically homophobic connotations.

Flikker faggot / jerk
Originally homophobic, still offensive.
Can also mean “jerk” among close friends, depending heavily on context.

Kanker cancer
One of the worst Dutch curses; can insult or intensify.
(Kankerlijder! cancer sufferer! extremely offensive.)
(Kankerkoud! fucking freezing! intensifier.)

Tyfus typhus
Very strong; can intensify or insult.

Tering tuberculosis
Common historical curse; strong but somewhat softened today.
(Teringherrie! fucking noise!)

Pokken pox
Older, rare now.

Pleures plague
Old-fashioned but still used harshly (Krijg de pleures! go to hell).

Schijt shit
Common frustration word.
(Schijtdag! shitty day!)

Schijterd coward / chickenshit
Mild insult.

Stront shit
Very common, slightly stronger than “schijt.”

Strontzak shitbag / asshole

Sodemieter op! fuck off!
Strong dismissal.

Sodemieter asshole / bastard
Old-fashioned but strong.

Sodemieter op screw off / get lost
Very rude.

(Neuk je moeder – extremely offensive.)
