I am trying to reserve travel on a belgian site, which normally should work in french and dutch, but now only the dutch part works. I would need translations for the following:

Dhr.
Mw.
Mej.
Voorvoegsel
Achternaam

EDIT: and another question is hongaar dutch for hungarian?

Dhr.is the abbrevation for Sir
Mw. is the abbrevation for Madam
Mej. is the abbrevation for Miss
Voorvoegsel is something typically Dutch, you only use it when have a name like "Pieter de Graaf"; the "voorvoegsel" is the word "de". Don't bother with it, they'll understand.
Achternaam is surname

EDIT: And yes, "Hongaar" is Dutch for someone from Hungaria, i.e. a Hungarian.

- Mr.
- Mrs.
- Miss
- prefix
- surname

and for your last question, yes it means hungarian.

edit: too late LOL
