"Hány éves vagyok?"

Translation: How old am I?

[Olbapz]

Literally Hány = How // éves = years // vagyok = am I? Right?

[IlyesHelgaa20]

Yes! :)

[Femke.emeF]

But "Jól vagyok" means "I am fine", so then "I" and "am" are switched???

[JelenaBraum]

No, there is no actual "I" in that Hungarian expression. It is not needed, since the verb declination is enough to tell who the person is. I am is actualy én vagyok.

Seems like a question only someone so old that they've forgotten their age would ask.

[hatcher]

It can also be a young child asking his mother. :)

[RyanOkushi]

Also though about that, but I think any kid old enough to ask that question would probably know their own age.

[belalablou]

I do quite sometimes ask this question. In several cultures people don't care that much about their age. Some don't know their exact birthdays either.

[Olbapz]

Or...asked as a clarification question in response to someone asking you how old you are.

Or a riddle

My wife was born on the last day of the year. She asks me this all the time.
