"Do you see English people or Hungarians?"

Translation: Angolokat vagy magyarokat látsz?

[Daniel640094]

Could "Látsz angolokat vagy magyarokat" work?

[vvsey]

It would work as a translation of a different sentence: "Do you see either/any English or Hungarian people?"

[amadalena]

Why? I don't understand the concept of word order in Hungarian.

[vvsey]

Because, in Hungarian, one of the most emphasized positions is in front of the verb (or predicate). In this sentence, the focus is clearly on the 'choice': "English people or Hungarians". So, in the Hungarian sentence, that will be in front of the verb:

Angolokat vagy magyarokat látsz?

Keep reading the comments sections, there is tons of explanation on the word order throughout this course.

Miért »Angol vagy magyar embereket látsz?» nem megfelel?

[Zsuzsi97194]

would "angol embereket" sound right too? Like people in general rather than a couple of them

[Patricia460976]

How do I say this using polite form?

[Rudolf978436]

Can I see English or Hungarian people?- Láthatok angolokat vagy magyarokat?(Did you think of this?)
