Hungarian is a really difficult language, or so I heard from foreign learners. I love translation, one of my teacher used to say that it is a huge responsibility of the translator how and what he/she translates. Ancient texts that were translated hundreds of years ago for instance are somewhat different from their original counterparts thanks translators.

Yea, I've heard that before. Hopefully I'll get the hang of it.

It definitely is! I have a few translations of Aristotle and you can see the amount of work and interpretation that goes into it just by reading different translations of the same piece. That why I like translations that include an index of important terms as well as a commentary, like with Hippocrates G. Apostle's translations.
