I admire them
I like them
Nor I like them, nor I dislike them
I don't like them

Well, knowing a foreign language is not really JUST because of the tourism, as, you'll wish to travel too and there is nothing worse then finding yourself in ignorance of any kind, like, being in the foreign country without knowing the language.And after all is knowing a foreign language just to serve "god chosen" tourists from Western countries so positive national trait at all?
Whenever I go to some new country I care to learn basic words so I can at least start a conversation in their language to show some respect, nor I am showing a middle finger and saying fuck you in my language to someone who cannot understand it and comes here - there is nothing embarrassing or lack of national pride in that really.
Some French will refuse to speak English to you even if they know it, it happened to me - I don't think they are showing any patriotism or national pride in that, just being an asses.

No one cheated me in Romania or Hungary, nor tried. Maybe because I look like "local"?
It depends when you were to those countries.

Az a tény, hogy anyanyelvem magyar, és magyarul beszélek, gondolkozom, írok, életem legnagyobb eseménye, melyhez nincs fogható. Nem külsőséges valami, mint a kabátom, még olyan sem, mint a testem. Mélyen bennem van, vérem csöppjeiben, idegeim dúcában, metafizikai rejtélyként.

I honestly don't know much about them or their country. Pan-Turanists would try to claim them as their own along with Finns.

I haven't had a whole lot of experience with Hungarians but the little bit that I have has been quite positive. One of my good friend's mother is Hungarian and she is a very sweet lady and I even dated a Hugarian girl for a short spell a few years back. She still lives in the area and we bump into each other once with a while. I always enjoy our conversations over coffee at the bookstore.
She's becoming New Englandized though--she wears checkered flannel wools now and makes maple syrup.

It's still a question, so answer it instead of acting like an offended pussy. What is so offending in being jokingly called (smiley, man) a "steppe nigger"?
BTW, I learned this expression from another Hungarian member, Augustus Khan. Seems he has more humour than you.
