It's been a little while since I've done a Czech blog. It's good to keep up with these things so thought I should squeeze a quick lesson into my lunch break today. This lesson will be focusing on numbers and days. Here are some of the words being learnt. I'm going to add a column for how the word sounds phonetically.

Jeden | Yeden | One |
Dva | Dva | Two |
Tri | Trshee | Three |
Ctyri | Tshryirshee (yeah, tell me about it) | Four |
Pet | Pyet | Five |
Sest | Shest | Six |
Sedm | Sedm | Seven |
Osm | Osm | Eight |
Devet | Devyet | Nine |
Deset | Deset | Ten |
Sto | Sto | 100 |
Pondeli | Pondyelee | Monday |
Utery | Ootehree | Tuesday |

Ctvrtek | Tchtfrtekh | Thursday |
Patek | Pahtek | Friday |
Sobota | Sohbohta | Saturday |
Nedele | Nedyeleh | Sunday |
I've managed to get numbers down ok now (even numbers above ten). Taken to speaking out numbers on number plates on my commute to try and memorise them. So far so good.
