100% CZECH without diacritics May 17, 2002

Whoever wrote the text left out the diacritics as they sometimes can cause problems (in emails, etc.) and make the text illegible.

Hungarian uses roughly the same amount of diacritics as CZech. EVen without diacritics, the text is legible (well, if you are used to reading such texts, that is.)

Back to the original question: it is definitely Czech (and not Slovak, and even less so Serbo-Croatian) ▲ Collapse
