Speaking Hungarian

I've been here for 6 months and I face the same prob. I don't really think the language prob is the main thing. Because some of them can speak but just refuse to have conversations in English. I heard from another Hungarian, Hungarian doesn't like foreigners much. Not sure whether this is true but perhaps.
Further, Hungarian language is a difficult language to learn. People I know lived here for 10 years, yes they can speak Hungarian but not well. So if you plan to live here that long, perhaps it is worthy to learn. But if just for a year or two, just for survival (for shopping, for asking directions) is enough I guess.
