Being a foreigner isn't easy. After living in Prague, Czech Republic for +4 years, there are still super Czech things that I cannot seem to wrap around my head. For example, making eye contact in a restaurant to order food. Here is a list of 9 things that I still find funny about this country.

Well if u know "ty vole!" then u know basicaly 50% of every single casual conversation xD ..you half way trough mate :D dont give up
Duzurix Duzurix TVL is my favourite word 😁 thanks for the motivation!
lol ty vole!
Also it is good to know “Fakt jo?” which means “really?”(used when surprised) and with Prague accent it sounds exactly like “F**k you”. Our relatives from Australia thought kids were talking dirty when they heard it all the time on the bus ;-).
Do you know "do píči"
Well its about same as "bro" or "dude" for Americans.
One good thing about us Czechs - we don’t get offended easily and we actually like jokes about us.
You are becoming pretty Czech considering your complaining skills. >:-) Greetings from Berlin, where I moved to from Prague about 5 years ago.
Haha thats right mate it has rubbed off on me for sure. You know what they say when in Rome... I love Berlin, is my favourite city in this part of Europe. Cheers!
Já jsem už 2 roky v Amsterdamu, a ať jsem se ptal kohokoli odkudkoli, každý si myslí, že u nich se nadává nejvíce. Tak asi tak :). Celý svět je grumpy.
Taky bydlim v Berline, chodite nekdy k Ludkovi v Pankow na pivko? :D
@ferda4680 Právě, že viděl :), máme tam pobočku. I když to každému přijde divné, fakt nenadáváte více :), expat meetingy v Amsterdamu jsou zajímavá zkušenost. Nebo kolega z Venezuely :)
We were oppressed by althogether so many years by germanisation, so im glad we atleast dont have to complain in german
Hhh complaining is a national sport for us, that's true :D On the other hand we hardly get offended and we appreciate the honesty, so that's a nice point for us, no? :) :D
Širín Ježková haha that’s true, the brutal honesty. But sometime I just wanted to be dressed a bit, not always ready for reality 😝😝😝
@@cokeboypeking9597 As Reinhard Heydrich said. Czechs are laughting beasts :))
@Snow that's wieird, maybe they just pretend to be offered. We do that quite often, but that's just our sarcasm
I find that Czech people do get offended when you tell them the truth, especially when it comes from a foreigner such as myself. Czech people can complain about the very same things, but that's OK.
Sadly, Czech people have limited qualities. They are quite peaceful, but sometimes that is out of fear. They can appear nice to your face, but the reality of how they are is very different. Foreigners need to be very careful, they can easily get tricked. Czech people see cheating foreigners as OK, it's a deeply corrupt country that shouldn't even be in the EU. I wonder if that comes from the Communist mentality of envy and bitterness towards those in the West? I think 'some' younger Czech people don't even see this, as some have seemed shocked by my awful experiences and can't believe it. As a foreigner, you may only experience how bad it is when you buy a property or do business. They gang up and will happily try to cheat you, money means everything to them. They have no morals, telling the truth and doing the right thing is alien to them. There's no sense of fair play.
I would also warn foreign guys about some of the women. Czech people worship money and will do anything to get it, especially if the person with money is foreign. Most of my foreign friends are being screwed over by their wives or girlfriends. A couple of them don't want to see it so stick around for more punishment. I know of one who had to leave because he lost all his money to a gold digger. If you think you got lucky with a beautiful woman, then maybe it's too good to be true. Far too many guys think their girl is different or that they are too smart to get fooled, but it happens such a lot. This is not cynicism, just a dose of truth.
@@doyouevenliftbro5925 You are as if they were not liars, gold diggers or bad people in your country. Lesson learned, be smart, not silly. Have a nice day.
The thing with the bus, there are stops that are called ''zastávka na znamení'' wich means something like ''a stop with a sign'' and you have to press a button like a minute or two before the stop so the bus driver stops and often the bus driver wants to save time so if he doesn't see people in the mirror that are standing in front of the door ready to get out off the bus, he doesn't stop even on the stops that he has to stop on
Very valid point Adam. I hate that one at Rimska near Namesti Miru, always seem to miss that one and the bus carries on :D Thanks for watching!
Stops on request are not a Czech invention or specificity…
@@jirkabolech on jenom vysvětloval co to je
@Finn it does
@@krystofegner4406 No, it doesn't. It roughly means "stop only if signalled to". Nemůžeš to překládat doslovně, protože to ztrácí význam.
socks in sandals are most biggest style in Czech republic😂😂
Im gonna start rockin it in public
That’s more of a Russian thing but yeah
@@cokeboypeking9597 it maybe dont look good, but when some insects, especialy bees stuck between foot and sandal, you will be glad for stocks :D :D
A guy complaining about the Czechs complaining too much :-D
Pavel D. 🤣 I’m too czech myself
I'm Czech and I think our language is really impossible for anybody who tries to learn it and I admire these few foreigners that learn the language and fluently speak Czech.. I can't even imagine how hard it must be
You are lying, im not a Czech person but i know your language as well
@@junkiesgummies good for you! Where are you from btw?
@@livingeva7632 Im from Nigeria
@@junkiesgummies you must be very clever. Lots of people from that far don't even know where the Czech Republic is.

I will tell you one more stereotype about the Czechs - we don't get offended ;)
I need to get this immunity as well 🤣🤙🏼👌
Petr expect my little cousin lol
Petr That’s absolutely not true .. If a Slovak say one negative thing about us the war begins xd
Hahah the one about people getting up before the stop, I do it all the time lol. Never made me think it was weird. I almost fell a few times. Gotta get that door bro :D
You are committing a crime!!!!!! 😝😝😝
Jn 😆
why are czech so active ? bcs pervitin was invented here too
You are not right. First of all, you're mixing languages. The common term in English for Czech 'pervitin' is methamphetamine or meth for short. Second, meth wasn't invented, it was discovered. Third, the discovery didn't take place in the Czech Republic for two reasons. When meth was discovered, this country was part of Austria (in simple terms), as it was in the 19th century. Meth was discovered in Japan and widely used in World War II to stimulate troops in action…
@@jirkabolech But we invented that meth can be injected with syringe

There's no nation better at complaining than us. It's our national sport. :-))
Champion, I need to master this sport :D
start with something unique for you, that about shitty work and no money is too cheap and nobody care :-D
"complaining" :D - neni nad poctivy, surovy a nemilosrdny hejt, ale snese se kapka nabrousene jizlivosti, ta je dennim chlebem... ;)
@@Pidalin Pche.. povrchni a bezucelne, jeste hodne vody utece, nez to bude za neco stat :P
tomasmalin - *Britain has entered the chat* - We have a TV show on the BBC where celebrities just complain about things they don’t like. It’s called Room 101 and that is literally the whole point of the show.
We're... active? Who? When? Why? How?!?!
I've been living in Prague for more than 20 years and I must say, that I have never ever heard of that ''eye contact'' thing...that is very uncommon, just normally wave at the waiter or tell them you want the bill. Nobody finds that weird, it's absolutely normal. Staring is commonly considered rude so I definitely wouldn't do that fam :D
Gazing at a waiter is not rude ; that’s how you communicate that you need his attention. I never wave so long as obvious gaze will get me noticed. I might raise my hand just a little, but never above my shoulder. I’m native.
Well, I always start to dance on the table to get the waiter's attention :D Nah, joking. The waiters run all over the restaurant, its a question of a short moment when they pss your table and you can just aks them for the bill. Otherwise I wave a little and make a gesture of paying. Never had a problem that the waiter wouldn't come ;)
I'd say Prague drivers are mean. Drivers in country side are fine.
Petr Kudláček true have to agree man 👍
Especially Prague taxi drivers. Category of their own.
What about those U's?
I loved your video. I'm Mexican and also moved to Czech Republic a year ago, but I live in telč, and you say a lot of thing I've already notice. Great video
Thanks a lot for the kind words!!! Wish you the best here 😝
spent 4 days in Czech and already can feel that most of them are so unfriendly, grumpy, and have no feelings
We are not cold.. it really depends where u've been but i guess in Prague.. yea.. in Prague it's different.. but for us its more like being safe u feel me?
didnt ask btw
6 stereotypes of foreigners living in Czech rep. ....1. Prague, 2, Prague, 3. Prague,..........all about Prague. And im writting it as Prague citizen.....
you put so much work into your videos..very nice :)
SPS2684 thank you so much. More to come in the future!!
having socks in sandals is meme in chzech republic xD
This is typical for Germans, too.
hey what part of Prague do you live in? btw, have you watched Atlanta?
this was the first video i watched from you and i really liked it. You are very likable
just a curious question to all the czechs: where does the complaining come from? (What’s the cause?). Like I spoke with a lot of Czechs and they all said that the Czechs are always complaining, but couldn’t tell me why and where it came from. So i hope somebody can answer that for me! :)
As a Czech who have been living in Prague his whole life, I have a few comments on this video: 1) you can actually wave ur hand, but dont be too obnoxious 2) We are not really angry drivers (more like frustrated cos of the bumper to bumper traffic), but when you drive every day in a busy city like Prague, you become alergic to slow or bad drivers 3) SO FUCKING TRUE 4) a lot of people are actually LAZY AS FUCK :D ... the rest of if was more or less true :D
Funny and cheerful video. The guy is so cute! This is going to be my favourite channel:*
I learned English (including the American accent) by watching Stargate tv series. Maybe you can learn Czech by watching some Czech tv series.
Do you think that he is a masochist? :)
In an attempt to learn where my family came from and get some insight without actually being there, this video helped a bit. Going to hunt for more on your channel now :P
Awesome video. I love that part of Prague you were in. I love the Czech people too. Proper Grumpy though.
Man u practically know speaking Czech. You don't need anything more😂😂 that part killed me
This was a great video, thanks for sharing. New sub. I was looking for some info on my heritage and found you. Great personality. 👍🏻
M.M F.M appreciated 😁
Thankyou for this video . Im a south asian looking forward to go to Czech next year for studies . Kind of feel nervous .
Earned a new subscriber 💪🏻✨
Thank you so much and for watching! :)
Oh my goddess, this video cracked me up soooo bad!!!!!!! You pointed out everything perfectly!! Xddd
I am Czech btw, just not from Prague but Ostrava
Thank you 😝🤷♂️
Interesting video!
You complainer! Look at you, becoming czech :D Man you're the first expat to really understand and describe czechs ... although 5 years is a good time for that but not being able to say more than 5 sentences is an atrosity! :D Common man, it is hard, but try to study 20 minutes a day, to me it gave ability to talk with Malays and Indonesians just in a few months. You can do it :)
damn buddy you are killing me. I must say it’s really my fault not being able to speak czech, I need to take it more seriously 😝 only thing is that to get by in Prague all you really need is English, that’s why I been putting it off. Thanks for the kind comment as well, I’m really picking up on this complaining sport eh 🤣
Joooo máš stoprocentní pravdu !! :D ( you are so on point man!! :D)
All of these things are so on spot.
Btw we have a spanish native lector in school that lives in Czech Republick for 7 years and he is pretty good at speaking czech, but he also says that it's a super hard languege to learn.
2:41 does anybody know that song or band ? 🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Spot on man. 😁 So true 😀😀
Mate next time I'm back in Czech I'll invite you to Moravia where I am from you look like a cool guy to have a beer 🍻
Marek Dolezal much appreciated mate! Would be cool cheers! 👍
Facts loll. Noticed a few of these things when I was there.
say word?! :D :D Sorry you had to experience all of that, it must of been rough :D
see, that's why we had to invent the best beer in the world. It makes us happy despite all of these less pleasant details in our daily lives.
Daniel D. 100% satisfactory after that beer 😁😁😁
staring in general is a hing in czech. people stare at me and just people around and dont care, just...INTENSE EYE CONTACT. i agree with what your saying a lot of what your saying actaully
I live in the country side of Czechia and ride a bus to school into a city but the road has a lot of turns and the bus driver goes into the turns like 70km/h
Serious road rage here for some people! Unfortunately Czech has one of the highest auto accident rate in the developed world!
that was more about prague than the whole czechia. liked your video ! :)
Irinnah thanks a lot! You are right most of my opinions are coming from prague 🤙🏼
As a Czech that moved to Canada, I love it.
Perfect ! :D
thanks!
I can speak Czech fluently Lol, I tried teaching people, asked them the next day and they had no idea, went on like this for a year and still, nothing. It really does seem impossible to learn if your not born their, I mean I wasn’t, but It was my first language. It honestly so so funny to see people trying to speak it. I also love me some socks and sandals.
Oh please, you know complaining on a public transportation is our national sport! What's there to not love about it? Haha, thank you for being so mild to us, there are far worse stereotypes you should have mentioned! Greetings from Ústí nad Labem!
Aevyna greetings! Tbh this complaining thing have grown on time 🤣🤣🤣🤙🏼
My friend congratulations you are very honest.100%. 👍👍I’m from New York City
Just goes to show that the habbit of stereotyping does not know any boundaries
Most of things you describe are very common in Europe, not only in Czech Republic...
I agree w/ Ritchie. Your complaining skills have gone significantly up. You'll be naturalised in no time. Also, we very seldom smile. A colleague of mine from Mexico has it even written in his Czech textbook that Czechs do not smile. :)
ZitraStatnice looll I’m a proud czech now 🤣
You traitor: what's wrong with socks in sandals :)
Another really good video.
As for the first point ... I would personally say that some decent gesture is totally fine. But you are right that you cant just wave without even making the eye contact. It will be considered rude. And a snap of the finger is total no go :)
Damn, you can really get some nice background scenes in Žižkov
Have you ever consider coming or living in Brno? Amazing city and (in my opinion) a lot better then Prague! :D
Hey dude. I am glad you like my country after all the drawbacks your mentioned. :-D
Regarding your point about morous CZECHS. :-) It is generally true. I wish people here would be more positive and happier. However, life has often bitter taste, and nature here is that people are rather grumpy and likely express their emotions (sometimes truthfully or exaggerate), than being shady, dishonest or just pretending friendliness...Honestly, I don't feel comfortable with that in some countries one have to be polite and flatter daily no matter what. Maybe because I am Czech, it is not my cup of tea when people hold back their feelings. I like to know what is running on somebody’s mind. Just be well balanced and take piece of both.
Secondly, drivers in the Czech Republic are not worse than others. :-) :-) Driving in entire Europe is generally ok, we have straight forward, rules and driving age from age of 18! Except traffic is terrible in rush hours sometimes, road are small, and parking lots too. :-) I have driving experience from many countries worldwide. Traffic in some other places is absolutely unconrolled and unsafe (middle east, asia) compare to the Czech. Also In some states in the USA, people don't know how to use car lights!!!, tailgating is also common there and almost every day somebody try to cut me of. Therefore, I don't think bad driving culture is an issue in the Czech Republic. :-)
Travelpill 🤙🏼thanks dude glad you could understand my humour and yea I do very much like living here. True I got accustomed to the czech attitude now I also quite enjoy it now just culture difference. I don’t mind the ‘fake nice’ in North America culture since I’m also use to it as well, no one take it as fake just becomes culture if you know what mean. In driving yea, compare to Asia and Poland for sure czech area better 🤣🤣😂 but I just hate being tailgated in D1 🤣😎🤣
It was not offensive at all, agree with you. The first stereotype was really funny, I haven't realized it. I am a Czech guy learning Chinese, it is also not so easy.
What is your purpose to learn Chinese?Are you planning travel to China ?
Ussually when i wanna pay in restaurant fast and get out a just raise my hand and say "Budu platit" i wanna pay pls when waiter is somewhere around me.
This is actually so true and I am saying that because i am czech myself, but i don't think our restaurant services are so bad it mostly depends on the poeple who serve you.
About to move there after 2 times visit those country, so beautiful country
It is a beautiful country and there are a lot of cities you can visit than just Prague. I'm sure you won't regret in moving here as you can get by in the city with just English pretty easily :)
"Grumpy also Czech"-that got me :)))))))
funny :D nice vid.
Rezistor thanks a lot!
i know „ty vole“ xd. Btw nice video.
Thanks a lot! TVL is my favourite word from this country :-)
Everything is true. I used to work as waitdress and I hate it when someone try to get my attention with noises, hands - it is rude... If you hurry, you should go to fast food, but no offense.
:(
Be aware of Tary he drive 250km/h
!!!!
xd
To number 3: Actually, it's kind of a way to let the driver know you are getting off on the next station. Sometimes, when there are few people in the bus, nobody is getting off and the driver sees there are no people waiting at the bus stop, he doesn't bother to stop there, so he saves time and he could drive past where you wanted to leave the bus. Happened to me a few times, as I live in more rural area. Also, once the bus driver stops, you have very few time to get off as he leaves the station, so yeah, nobody is going to wait for you to get up and leave if you are way too slow.
Kateřina Holobová is rough out here 🤣🤙🏼
1. If you want to pay and you're in a rush, you can definitely stand up and ask on the bar politely that you want to pay. There's nothing wrong with it. Or wave at them (i don't usually go above my shoulder)
2. I agree most of the drivers are super agressive and it makes me mad. When I drive I'm just like "chill dude".
3. Oh lord the bus shuffle that happens too often with older people xD But on the other hand some bus stops are on sign so you have to get up earlier and let the driver know.
4. Not everyone is super active. There are many people like you and I'm one of them :D I like youtube, drawing, streaming, music. Going out hiking is nice from time to time.
5. And the service well you have to take it like we're completely different culture. I don't know how it is canada, but here usually the waiters and bartenders wants you to make yourself comfortable you know.. take off your jacket and stuff, you have time to pick what you want to eat and drink and then they'll come. I agree it could be better/quicker (especially in Prague), but as an introvert I'm actually glad that they give me time. And when you said that we have almost zero servis those restaurants/bars where you went are probably crap xD I haven't experienced bad service honestly.
6. I think the drivers actually have system, where it shows if they are late to the next bus stop or not. Idk how it is in prague, but here where I live you can definitely see it.
7. Czech language is so hard for foreigners. I'm not suprised that you have problem with it, but if you want to learn you can definitely ask your wife or there is actually one US youtuber, who wanted to learn czech and now he is pretty good in it. (took him a year and some months?) So he could give you tips ---- his name is TadyGavin. And btw you're in czech for 5 years you could have studied bit more :D (no pressure though, I like to stay in my comfort zone too hahah)
8. What can I say :D Socks in sandals aaaah the older generation loves it, cus it's comfortable. But younger generation is making fun of it :D I don't know what kind of people you meet, but here you won't meet people accesorized with plastic bags. If they are carrying plastic bag it's because they bought something.
9. Complaining is pretty common, but again it depends on the people, who you meet. I don't know anyone who would complain constantly tbh. And the mood hmm yeah we can probably look bit grumpy, but once you get to know us well, we're friends for life. (many people can be toxic tho so try to avoid those xD) Or maybe if they look super grumpy... they just show that they don't want to talk to you? At least they're not faking anything hahah.
And when you were talking about work, those people are rude, nothing else. Normal person would greet you even if they're in a bad mood.
We're not perfect and you will definitely have more things that you like and don't like. If you are not sure that the behavior is normal ask your wife or friends and then you'll know, how to deal with those situations.
Overall great video I agreed on few things with you. Prague can be bit extreme. It's different in other places. I know bunch of people, who don't like prague for those reasons. If you want to have better experience definitely ask locals, because many places want to just cash out tourists.
6:30 Imagine yourself going to like a 15hrs shift at 4 am and the outside temperature is around 6°C in Summer, what'd you do? Your closed-up shoes'd melt after 4 hrs when the ambient temperature rises to around 30°C, so the alternative is to wear sandals, BUT your toes'd fell off in the morning so you'll try to balance the temperature boom with socks ..
7:00 "loose construction pants" that's called: "work outfit on a lunch break" ... I don't think, you'd change your working clothes to your regular clothes all sweat up after a 6hrs of hard labour when you're about to go to lunch .... Don't forget we're an industrial country for the last 60 years-ish & still being butt-f*cked by commies even they've been overthrown ages ago ;)
I was almost run over by a crazed bus driver in Prague
Serious issue here :-)
lol I had a taxi driver pull a gun on us because I dared to call him out on taking the scenic route to the airport!
Wowww! Hope you walked away safely over that one! I only Uber for that exact reason!
@@TheCulturalCompass Taxis are typically good and honest if you call them to pick you up. Those that hang out at tourist spots are vultures.
He did pick us up in Nusle. Kicked us out at the Dancing House at gunpoint. After my girlfriend & I got over the initial shock we laughed till we cried at the absurdity of it. Just glad she still made her flight.@@Circuit7Active
I really enjoyed this video. Born and grown up in Czech, love my country, but no place is perfect. Except "czech people being too active is something annoying", I agree with all points in this video because I am probably too active myself :D
If you want to learn Czech, get in a time machine and travel back to Prague in 1990. I learnt Czech then because no one in Prague spoke English.
Alternatively, leave Prague and go to a small town. You'll have to learn Czech to survive because so few people speak English in small towns.
And just to make sure you learn it properly, get a fifty-year-old girlfriend (really, it's a good idea).
Yeah, they can be grumpy buggers though.
Haha glad you can agree with my on the language part :) To be honest, you don't really need Czech to get by, but its always better you do!
Service always depends on the place, if its an average/older place they are payed a shitty salary, of course they will be not nice..
In the city center its the second extreme, they want just to cash out tourists, and thats all, and the tourists will still go there again and again..
But if you go to a popular place for locals to eat, it will have probably better service - still there is a high demand and fluctuation, thats why you always can run into some idiots..
On the other hand a lot of people like to go to shitty pubs, with an arrogant owner, that will not ask you if you want another beer,
he will just give you one, and thats how we like it :D But the pipes have to be clean(ish) in such pubs.
Same with the grumpyness, the thing is, you know what the people are real, no fake positiveness :D
Joel Cuce haha true I have to agree with you. Tbh I’d rather enjoy the level service here more and more now that I’m back in Canada and facing the amount of fake service
Well man and where from is your cat? Is Czech, Kanadian or Chinese? :D
He is British but eats like an true American :-)
actually as a Czech person (however not living in Prague), my experience is quite different in some cases... for example service: you often haven't finished your beer yet and another one is standing in front of you :D OK, it's not a rule, but that's how you know you're in the right drinking hole :) or the thing with waiters: it's usually enough to say "please can I pay" or whatever you want when a waiter is nearby and they'll come in a short while if they're not complete bastards :D but you know, Prague is weird :D (yeah I¨m from Moravia, I just had to say that :D)
NAME OF THAT SONG!!!
That's a nice coat!
:-D interesting - to see us (OK I am from Slovakia but basically the same :-D ) from a foreigner point of view :)
Hah, my father is from Canada, and he speaks czech pretty well, but i guess the polish roots helped him a lot :D
Yup, Polish and Czech are quite similar. Most Russian speakers can pick it up pretty fast as well!
5. We don't like "american" style of service, when they come 10 times to check if we need something.
ehm, I always thought it´s okay to just ask the waiter, or say something. Never even noticed this eye contact thing, maybe I should eat out more :D
well, I'm from Bulgaria and lived there for 9 years and moved to the Czech Republic and learned the language almost perfectly.
For Slavic speaking persons is easier to learn another Slavic language than for non-Slavs
You're right about the Czech language..my aunt live here 15 years and she still can't speak czech perfectly. I mean...she is amazing a comunicative person, but she don't speak fluently and she sometimes don't know some words do yeah..It's very hard language. (I'm from Czech republic and my english is not perfect so I'm sorry for all the mistakes😅)
Czechs have their own ways in many things, usually determined by their historical experience. It is up to you to either assimilate or leave. There is no other option for you as a foreigner.
lol, i’m actually czech and this makes me giggle
JZP - If I would not recognize the place, I would not know what it means. We say Jiřího z Poděbrad.
Oh yeah, the famous socks in the sandals! :D
It is a crime!
@@cokeboypeking9597 Sure it is, but it is a well known fact about Czechs :D Charm for our tourism? That's why everyone comes to Czech! To see us running with socks in our sandals! :D (Now honestly, only older people or those mentally unstable wear socks in sandals ;))
@@NefiCZ True, I see them mostly with older servers in restaurants or cukarnas :D
In most restaurants you can make some small hand gestures but yeah, it is sometimes really hard :D Ynd you are spot on with the aggressive drivers.
But super active? Most of us are sooooo lazy :D
You have seen people in services with socks and sandals? :D Wow... it is like a meme in czech republic, even we make fun of those people.
prosra socks and sanders is a legitimate crime 🤣 all jokes aside the aggressive drivers I dislike the most 😝
Living outside of the big cities is where it is man
I will move out there once my Czech will be good :-)
So how did you meet your Czech wife? You should make a video about that. Good video mate.
Hahahaha I liked it
Being Czech I have to agree on many points.
of course you can wave at the waiter lightly, dont worry, but i believe you can get fined by the police for snapping fingers
Never dared to have tried. I must try next time :-)
do you have any Japanese roots? Anyway, I am gonna move to Czech very soon, thanks for the tips here ;)
Hello i am from czech if you want to pay the bill you can get up and go to the main waiter and say to him you want to pay
lol I like your style especially adding all the video clip. How can you not speak more Czech when you have a Czech wife? ??? Is she trying to improve her English?
haha thats a good question for her, I guess she wants to learn English more than she wants to teach Czech :-D To be honest you can get away with just speaking English in this city thats why I was always never fully onboard :D
@@cokeboypeking9597 I understand that family dynamic. I have been teaching English since 1990 here but I studied CZ and I ttoally immersed myself in improving my language skills. I saw immediately how the culture is divided linguistically. Language is literally the Czech National Defense System. It's brilliant, it's the most fascinating language I've ever studied. I can express myself in ways I never could in any other language. Having said that, I also know that I even when I intend to improve on my lang. skills, I'll never speak like a native! But what I really want to impress upon you is to make the effort to learn czech. Whole new worlds and doors will open for you that you never even dreamed existed . . . .
Want some help? Just say the word. I have an offer for you in the way of a barter.
