Question:
Im a student currently studying computer science in the UK, and have
lived in London all my life. My father is Czech, and although Ive been
visiting Prague all my life and half of my faily live there, I have never
learnt to speak the language. I am hoping to spend next year in Prague
learning Czech, and was wondering if anyone had any information about Czech
classes for english speaking people in Prague?
Answer:
my advice would be not to learn Czech and not to waste too much
time with languages in general. The reason is that compared to the
effort you put into it, the benefits are meager. And the future is
even worse. Even the best of business deals can be made in sign
language as I often witness it in New York, 8-)#.
Studying computer science you have one heck of a desirable activity
to concentrate on. But if you want to connect the two or learn the
language just for the fun of it, then the best tactics in my opinion,
is to live with young people like yourself who speak Czech and no
English. You just will be forced to repeat after them and consult the
books to clear up the puzzles only. The classes are just a theory,
but you need the practice, intensive talking and listening among
Czechs.
