What does ni shou hun hao mean in English?
I could be totally wrong, but it could mean "You speak very well" (assuming that this has been said in Mandarin). The "hun" is actually written as "hen" in pinyin, though sometimes they can sound very similar and the "shou" is actually "shuo" (this way it sounds closer to the English sounds of "aw" rather than "ow").
The characters look like this: "你 说 很 好"
and it is pronounced like so: "nǐ shuō hěn hǎo"
Keep in mind this could be totally off since I do not know much Chinese

Did attila the hun ever get married?
Attila the Hun had multiple wives and several children. Attila's last wife was Hildico, a Germanic princess. Attila died on his wedding night with her, apparently choking on his own blood from a nosebleed to which the Hun king was prone, after heavy drinking. If he had not been drunk, it is speculated that he might have survived the nosebleed which caused the death of the most powerful man in the world in 453 AD. One of Attila's would-be wives was Honoria, sister to the Emperor Valentinian III, who was banished to a convent for an act of indiscretion, and she offered herself as a wife to Attila along with half of the Western Roman Empire as her dowry. This proposition sparked the largest and bloodiest battle of ancient times, the Battle of Chalons (aka the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains) in 451 AD, and one of the most decisive battles in history. The Roman general Aetius (a friend of Attila since childhood) alligned himself with the Visigoths and other German nations, fighting Attila to a tactical draw which resulted in a strategic victory for the Romans. Anyone interested in Attila should see the 2001 miniseries "Attila" starring Gerard Butler, and the 1954 movie "Sign of the Pagan" starring Jack Palance which covers the year of Attila's life (452 AD) omitted by the later TV production. Neither story is completely accurate, but both give a feel for life in the sagging years of Roman civilization, and they may incite the viewer to read about this fascinating era.

What clothes did the huns wear?
The Huns were described as short in stature and of dark skin and hair, but that would probably be only the majority, not all of them.
It's likely they originated in Central Asia, around the Altai mountains so imagining a Kazakh's appearance would be a start (something between Caucasoid and Mongoloid).
It's also likely that the Huns were the Xiongnu, which would situate them in Mongolia. A survey of the people around there at the time of the Xiongnu may lend to a vague picture of the Hun's apperance.
