...like you do.

Just curious about the difference between "régi" (which I understand to be more like old-fashioned or antique) and öreg (which I understand to be "old")?

[Judit294350]

"régi" for things; "öreg" for people.

[AnnabelleStinson]

Super helpful, I had no idea!. Thanks!

[J.Looijen]

Why is the sentence "The old table I am shouting by" wrong? Is that wrong English?

[Judit294350]

Correct. You cannot say that in English.

[J.Looijen]

Thanks, I needed that reply, cause I'm not a native English.

In a previous sentence "asztal mellet" was beside the table
Now it is corrected it and saying that "by the table"
If both are interchangeable, it should be accepted and not stand as an error

[ElakVarg]

Should I report "I shout near the old table"?

[Nab918927]

how often would this sentence come up in everyday hungarian conversation?

[Alexandra714276]

It's not the point apparently
