Dear readers, remember when you were little and your grandparents sometimes spoke a word that was unheard of for you? You were confused about what language they were speaking... until they kindly explained to you that it was an old and nearly forgotten expression of something that already had a different name. You were baffled and disillusioned.: )
Those feelings You can have now by examining this unique collection of The old Slovak expressions, their Slovak meanings and English translations, which I collected throughout my life from family, friends, and kind old people...
This comprehensive vocabulary is a collection of over 300 old Slovak expressions and their modern English translations. It is a valuable resource for everyone who is interested in the language, culture, and history. The expressions included in this book range from everyday objects and actions to emotions, professions, and abstract concepts, offering a wide-ranging glimpse into the lives and minds of our ancestors.
Each entry includes the old Slovak expression, its modern Slovak equivalent, and its modern English translation. The translations aim to capture the essence and meaning of the original expression, allowing You to grasp their significance fully.
Whether you are a native Slovak speaker looking to rediscover the forgotten language of your grandparents or a speaker interested in Slovak, Czech and Slavic culture, this book is more than just a collection of expressions. It's a key to understanding our cultural heritage. Use it as a reference guide to enrich your conversations, a learning tool to deepen your understanding of the language, or simply as a source of fascination and enjoyment.
This is your way of keeping our ancestors' voices alive and honouring the richness of our cultural history. Thank you.
I would appreciate it if you could leave an honest review. Thank You.
