    Why is a lot "sok" in the accusative? It is not the receiver of the action. I'm not sure but I don't think it would be considered a direct object in English.

    Same question here. It should be an adverb but does not seem to behave like one in Hungarian

      Why must we say Én in this sentence?

        It's also correct without "én".

          I was marked wrong for excluding it, so I reported it. It should hopefully be accepted soon.

            Would this work: "Én nagyon várok."
