"I am not chatting inside, but outside."

Translation: Én nem bent beszélgetek, hanem kint.

[The9]

Why is is not "beszélgetek bent" correct?

[Nab918927]

yes why must bent follow nem in this sentence?

[Judit294350]

Because you are negating bent - not inside

[AnnaLynch4]

word "beszelgetek" is misspelled in the hints section as "beselgetnek". I will report

[hilarymcca5]

Yes. I reported today. 24/09/2020

difference between beszél and beszélget?

[linguafiqari]

-get/-gat denotes a repetitive action:

• Beszélni = To speak; Beszélgetni = To converse/chat
• Látni = To see; Látogatni = To visit

Why do you not say "bent van" or "kint van"?

[dualinga15]

Because "van" is a verb itself, the verb "to be" in the third person singular ("is").

What you proposed would literally mean "I am not chatting; inside he is, but outside (he is)". (or something similar, may the native speakers correct me, but anyway, a sentence like that would make no sense)

[hilarymcca5]

beszélgetnek - the hover hint. Is this wrong? I reported 24/09/2020

[hilarymcca5]

Is it always necessary to include the personal pronoun?

[Judit294350]

Only if you want to emphasize it.
