"Ezek a helyek nem ismerősek."

Translation: These places are not familiar.

Is "I am not familiar with these places" a translation that works too?

[Han-Miru]

Can someone break down the work ismerősek?
Or give other words that end in -(ő)sek

[vvsey]

"Ismerni" - to be familiar with, to know
"Én ismerem őt" - I know him
"Ismerős" - familiar - an adjective, created from the original verb. Treat it as its own word.
"Ismerősek" - familiar in the plural. Pay attention to the suffix "-ek". If you use a different buffer vowel, the meaning changes:
"Ismerősök" - acquaintances

So, yes, "ismerős" can be both "familiar" and an "acquaintance".

No sound from this test. A Duolingo fault I think?

[MrrzyV]

Would unfamilar be ismerősetlenek?

[jzsuzsi]

ismeretlen (singular)

ismeretlenek (plural)

Thanks!

[Krisbaudi]

Could it also be: These places are not well known.?
