OK, since none of you speak Czech, and who knows how many Czechs speak
English, I've decided to start the "Czech Word of the Day". (Aren't you
excited?!?)
Drumroll, please...
Word #1: from Frommer's "Prague and the BEST of the Czech Republic"
English Czech how the fuck do you pronounce it?

Hello Dobry den DAW-bree den
And for your fine dining experiences-to-be:
Cucumber Salad = Okurkovy salat
This is a VERY important phrase to remember! Just think how pissed off
you'll be when you've been DYING for a cucumber salad after a grueling day
of touring, but you can't remember what it's called when you get to the
restaurant.
Good-bye.
Na shledanou (NAH skleh-dah-noh-oo)
--Mike "looking forward to some delicious cucumber salad"
