In the times when we still had borders in Europe I used to hike with my dear American friend Ray Coppinger in the National Park Sumava in the Czech Republic.
As I usually did, we crossed the border illegally on some hidden paths in the swamps. Ray was a little bit worried getting caught and asked me about the consequences. i told him that they'ed put us in prison and worst of all, they'ed make us learn the Czech language. The second point frightened him that much that he asked me to go back immediately... Dobrou noc, Michael |

I don't know, Michael, from my personal first-hand experience, learning Czech is peanuts to learning French. Of course, the age may have some impact on that

It's a funny topic, and also really interesting... Wow Czech and Slovak looks for sure more difficult than French (For plural we only put an "s" at the end of the word...).
What is the plural used for Czechoslovakian Vlcak in the USA? |

And to think, AKC was worried that "Ceskoslovensky" would confuse Americans
![]() Though we do have the Cesky Terrier here...as I understand that breed was also developed in Czechoslovakia, and wouldn't just be a "Czech Terrier", (same as ours aren't "Czech Wolfdogs"), so maybe someone screwed that one up along the way? Or maybe it should have had Chodsky instead?

Well, even thought the Czechoslovakia was the country of origin for this breed, but it was bred in Czech republic. On the other hand, although the first mating for CSW was in Czech republic, the breed itself is the result of work of both Czech and Slovak breeders, and sorry to say, the Slovak part is often passed over (like everybody says it is breed of Mr. Hartl, but most people forget the role of Maj. Rosik). So Czechoslovak is a correct name for the breed.
Chodsky pes is a completely different kind of breed from the Czech Terrier. And it was bred in a region called Chodsko ![]()
