A short history of the Czech language
Czech is classified as an Eastern Indo-European language. Together with Polish, Slovak and Sorbian, it belongs to the Western Slavic group of languages. It is also closely related to the Eastern Slavic languages (eg Russian, Ukrainian) and Southern Slavic languages (eg Croatian, Serbian).
The Czech language has its roots in ancient Slavonic, from which it began to separate at the end of the 10th century. It developed during the Middle Ages and spread geographically with the expansion of the Bohemian state (it was known as Bohemian in English until the 19th century).
The literary form of the language became more standardised during the 15th and 16th centuries. This process was influenced by modifications to Czech orthography made by the religious reformer Jan Hus, to accommodate Czech sounds that could not be represented by the Latin alphabet.
Today there are differences between traditional written Czech and common spoken Czech, and several distinct (but mutually intelligible) dialects are spoken within the different regions of the Czech Republic – Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia. It is very similar to Slovak – Czechs and Slovaks can understand each other fairly easily. Read more
