You are, of course, spot on. Excellent work. The floor is yours.

The dictionary is a problem. As you saw, it is of limited use unless you know the grammar enough to recognise the stems or get lucky with something with the same ending appearing in the expression database. For your information, most = now, béke = peace, békével = with peace/in peace, tenger = sea, part = bank/shore, thus, tengerparton = on the sea shore. I guess the hardest things, like always, are verbs. There were four here, including irregular megy = go, menjetek = you go (2nd person plural imperative), which is impossible to get from any dictionary.
