意思
Asking for assistance informally.
文化背景
Hungarians are generally very helpful to guests, but they expect you to use the correct level of formality. Using 'Segíts' with a stranger might result in a cold response. In Budapest, people are more used to informal language in shops, but in the countryside, formal 'magázás' is still very much the standard for anyone you don't know personally. Many modern Hungarian offices (especially in tech) use 'tegezés' (informal) for everyone, including the boss. In these environments, 'Segíts, kérlek!' is perfectly fine. Younger people often drop the 'kérlek' and just say 'Segíts már!' or use English loanwords like 'Help-elj már!'.
The Comma Matters
Always put a comma before 'kérlek' in writing. It's a hallmark of good Hungarian grammar.
Don't be too bossy
Without 'kérlek', 'Segíts!' is a command. It can sound rude if your tone isn't very friendly.

Add 'egy kicsit'
Saying 'Segíts, kérlek, egy kicsit!' (Help a little) makes the favor seem smaller and easier to say yes to.
Eye Contact
When asking for help in Hungary, maintain friendly eye contact to show sincerity.

'Kérlek' is 'I ask you', while 'légy szíves' is 'be so kind'. They are interchangeable in most informal situations.
It is singular. If you are asking a group of friends, you must say 'Segítsetek, kérlek!'.
The 't' is part of the root 'segít', and the 's' is the imperative marker. Together they create the 'ch' sound.
On its own, 'Kérlek' usually means 'You're welcome' or 'Please (go ahead)'. To ask for help, you need the verb 'Segíts'.
You can say 'Segíts nekem', but 'Segíts' already implies 'me' in this context.
Yes, in informal emails to friends or colleagues, it's very common.
Shout 'Segítség!' (Help!) as loud as you can. Don't worry about 'kérlek' then!
No, you can say 'Kérlek, segíts!', which is slightly more emphatic.
