"A Kékestető magas, a Balaton pedig mély."

Translation: Kékestető is high whereas Lake Balaton is deep.

[kgyt]

A Balaton nem is mély… :-D

[RyagonIV]

Az relatív. A Balaton mélyebb mint a Kékestető. :B

[Jan964046]

I agree. Kekestetö is not that high and balaton is not deep. Just that you know.

[Oldfatdad]

I don't see the Hungarian word for "lake" anywhere in the Hungarian question. I know this is only a technicality because "Balaton" obviously means the lake here. However, Balaton is more than a lake. It's a place, and even a region.

[Needabeer]

If you just say the name of the place in the Hungarian sentence, either an answer without Lake should be accepted, or I should have to write Mount Kékestető as well as Lake Balaton...

[GrfMikls]

Szerintem egy hegy inkább "high".

[jsiehler]

"Tall" is OK here. I think it's mostly a matter of personal preference. Not that this is a perfect gauge of such things, but "tallest mountain" and "highest mountain" both get about the same number of Google results, and there are plenty of examples of fluent English speakers and writers using both.

It would be good for the exercise to accept both words, though, so it's worth reporting if you get the chance.

I agree high should be accepted too. Tall works too, but mountains can be high as well.

[Blodwedden]

Eather there is no English word for " tető". I guess it should be something like "Kékes top".

[RyagonIV]

"Kékes summit" would sound nice. Or "peak". But I guess the addition of tető is made so that you know you're talking about the mountain and not the colour.

[Bastette54]

Isn't Kékestető the actual name of the mountain (or region), but most people call it Kékes?

[Kifike]

Aki ezt írta, az még az életében nem járt Magyarországon. A Balaton 5 méter "mély", a Kékestető 1000 méter magas. Hahaha!

[Stephanus38703]

Kekestető is not very high as a mountain - and Balaton 9s not very deep as a lake. But compared with the Hungarian standard they are.

[kmargittai]

Kékestető is high while Lake Balaton is deep - the word bank offers "while" and it's used as a synonym for whereas in American English. In fact, it's probably more used than whereas.
