"Ez a rovar szőrös?"

Translation: Is this insect hairy?

[Apahegy]

Is there a difference between bogár and rovar? I know it's insect vs bug, but in Hungarian is there really a difference?

[jsiehler]

Bogár is "beetle" and I'd say the situation is about the same as "beetle" versus "insect" in English. Most people more or less recognize a beetle when they see one and will probably use the more specific term if it's appropriate, even if they can't give a precise definition of the difference between the two. Likewise bogár and rovar.

[Bastette54]

Technically, "bug" is another word for "beetle." But I've always heard the word "bug" used as a catch-all term for any insect, as well as for spiders.

[jsiehler]

Technically, "bug" and "beetle" mean different things.

Interesting. I heard something different, but apparently that was wrong.

what is wrong with "Is this the hairy insect?"

[jsiehler]

"Is this the hairy insect?" would be, Ez a szőrös rovar?

Szőrös was furry in a previous question.
