Czech (čeština in Czech) is a West Slavic language spoken in the Czech Republic and by Czechs around the world. It is mutually intelligible with the Slovak language.

Morphology

Nouns - podstatná jména

Czech nouns are divided into three genders: masculine (mužsky rod), feminine (ženský rod), and neuter (střední rod); however, in some cases differentiation is required between masculine animates (mužsky rod žívotný) and masculine inanimates (mužsky rod nežívotný). Gender classifications affect the endings of adjectives and which endings will be used in different grammatical cases.

Cases - pády

There are seven cases in Czech: nominative, accusative, genitive, dative, locative, instrumental and vocative. Cases use both singular and plural forms.
