اشتباهات رایج

After 'hogy' in a subjunctive context, you must use the subjunctive mood, not the indicative.

صحیح: Azt akarom, hogy ő menjen.

The 'tj' cluster assimilates into 'ccs' (represented as 'ts' in orthography).

Wrong: Segítjon.
صحیح: Segítsen.

Be careful with definite vs indefinite conjugation in the imperative.
