    So I do not understand that the translation of walk is setal but it's actually setalsz. What's the difference?

      It depends on the person and the number of persons. In English, you have "you walk" and "he walkS". That is so easy. Hungarian has a version for each person:

      Én sétálok - I walk
      Te sétálsz - You walk
      Ő sétál - He/she walks

      Mi sétálunk - We walk
      Ti sétáltok - You walk
      Ők sétálnak - They walk

        What's the difference between "sétálsz" and "maga sétál"?

          Formality. "Maga sétál" can be used in formal situations (and it may even sound a bit... harsh? cold? not the most common formal way imo)
