Learning the Hungarian Pronouns displayed below is vital to the language. Hungarian pronouns include personal pronouns (refer to the persons speaking, the persons spoken to, or the persons or things spoken about), indefinite pronouns, relative pronouns (connect parts of sentences) and reciprocal or reflexive pronouns (in which the object of a verb is being acted on by verb's subject).
In English personal pronouns are (I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they), and (me, you, him, her, it, us, you, them), In Hungarian, the personal pronouns are:
én, te ő, mi ti ők.
Indirect Object Pronouns:
Indirect object pronouns are words that replace the indirect object, which is usually a person.
engem(et) (me), téged(et) (you, informal), Önt, magát (you, formal) őt (him, her), minket (us) titeket, benneteket (plural you, informal), Önöket, magukat (plural you, formal), őket (them)
Possessive Pronouns:
enyém (mine), tiéd (singular yours), övé (his, her’s, its), miénk (ours), tiétek (plural yours), övék (theirs).
One special feature of Hungarian is the combination of prepositions and pronouns into single words. Examples:
to me = nekem, to you = neked, to him = neki, to us = nekünk, to you = nektek, to them = nekik
from me = tőlem, from you = tőled, etc.
for me = számomra, for you = számodra, etc.
between us = köztünk, between you = köztetek, etc.
out of me = belőlem, out of you = belőled, etc.
(up)on me = rajtam, (up)on you = rajtad, etc.
