"Nem reggel hanem délután."

Translation: Not in the morning, but in the afternoon.

[Doroshenko5]

But how about "Not morning, but afternoon?"

[killerman64]

yes, there has to be a word instead of but, possibly the word instead.

[funtoast99]

I thought it would be "It is not the morning, but the afternoon." Does that work? If not, how would you say that?

[gergo2]

That would be "Nem reggel van, hanem délután."

[funtoast99]

Cheers!

[Voyle]

Checking: And that's because it's a matter of "when" so it would require a form of "to be"?

[Mesternefeld]

With these I get confused, would "Not in the morning, but rather in the afternoon" be correct?

[gergo2]

Yes.

[Omonigho1]

Reggel can mean 'in the morning' or 'morning' based on context

[Adrian-Michael]

Do delben and delutan have the same meaning?

[guntunge]

dél = noon
után = after
-ben (or -ban) = in or at
délután = afternoon
délben = at noon

[Adrian-Michael]

Thanks!

[Nicola357618]

So how would would you say "It is not morning, but afternoon"

[Liggliluff]

"Nem reggel van, hanem délután" I would expect

[Liggliluff]

"Nem reggel hanem délelőtt" ;)

[Nicola357618]

Thank you , but what does délelőtt" mean?

[GrubbaFong]

I am hearing a syallable after "nem" but before "reggel". Sort of like "Nem in em reggel". Whaaa?

[JanosJohannIvan]

It's Hungarian rolled R. It's prominent here because of the transition from the "m" in "nem"

[huseyinsargin]

delut"an" production attachment is Turkish. There is the same in Turkish. "Akşamın'an'"

[Liggliluff]

Except that után comes from útján, útjá + n, not +an
