Lesson
Three:
The worm sound. . .
In English there are many words with the
ö sound, with a variety of
different spellings:
Germ, term,
berm, certain, herd, terse, fern, discern
Thirst, first, fir, sir,
bird, firm, gird, third, dirge, dirt
burst, cursed, during,
turn, curd, curtain, purr, burr, murder, further,
burn, fur, purge, turkey, purchase
Heard, learn,
yearn, earn—get the picture???
Worm, worse, word,
worth
Keep one example word such as worm, in mind as a reference
for this sound whenever you see it. That’s why I call it the worm sound.
1.
Köszönöm (Thank you) (kö’ sö nöm)
Notice the two dots over the o
(remember, ö sounds like the o in worm).
In Hungarian,
when the o is pronounced this way, it will have always have two dots above
it
Ö
2.
Köszönöm szépen (Köszönöm say pen)
Thank you
very much
Watch
for vowels with little marks over them--like é
é always sounds like long a
(as in say) in English
3. Szivesen (See’ vesh en) You’re
welcome.
