    Thanks. It’s a good video. Of course, the history part is focused on the things that affected the language, not modern history. The video persuaded me further that the Czech language is very complex from the point of view of an English speaker. It’s good that there is so much in common between the different Slavic languages. Definitely the video was a good find!

    A nice video.

    Háčeks are indeed used in other languages, even Finnish and Estonian have adopted them for use with loanwords and transliterated proper names (Finnish doesn’t have sh or zh sounds natively, we aren’t big on consonants). Also Saami languages use háčeks a lot.

    I think háčeks would make a lot of sense in Engliš, if Engliš-speakers would čoose to introduce ťem.
