Budapest
Hungarian is a very difficult language, unrelated to any other European tongue. I sat on the train from Budapest to Vienna for three hours, in a compartment with 3 hungarians, and although they talked constantly, the only words I understood were: "internet" and "budapest".
This is the Hungarian word for "health", apparently. I think that if you can say it, you must be healthy.

Dude, how wrong you are. Hungarian is a Finno-Ugric language. Related to Estonian. And Finnish.

Yes, yes, of course you are right... I bury my head in shame! I think Welsh is also in this language group, along with Basque?
You must indeed be a cunning linguist!
