معنی
A male in his youth.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Pesti srácok' are legendary figures from the 1956 revolution. They were young men and teenagers who fought in the streets of Budapest. In modern Hungary, 'srác' is often used as a term of address among male friends, similar to 'dude' or 'mate'. In villages, you might still hear 'legény' instead of 'srác', which reflects a more traditional, agricultural history. On Hungarian TikTok or Instagram, 'srác' is the standard term used in captions to refer to young men in videos.
The 'Sh' Sound
Remember that in Hungarian, 's' is always 'sh'. So 'srác' starts with a 'sh' sound, not an 's' sound.
Age Sensitivity
Don't use 'srác' for men over 30 unless you know them very well; it can sound like you're calling them immature.
