SOME FACTS
The Slovak language is an Indo-European
language, more precisely a West Slavic language
(together with mainly the Czech, Polish,
and Sorbian languages). Slovak is especially
close to Czech, speakers of both languages
usually understand each other well.
Slovak is spoken in Slovakia (by 5 million
people), the USA (500,000, emigrants), the
Czech Republic (320,000, due to former Czechoslovakia),
Hungary (110,000, ancient ethnic minority),
Serbia-Voivodina (60,000, ancient ethnic
minority), Romania (22,000, ancient ethnic
minority), Poland (20,000), Canada (20,000,
emigrants), Australia (emigrants), Austria,
Ukraine, Bulgaria, Croatia (5,000) and some
other countries.
The correct American English adjective
for the language, people, and culture of
Slovakia is 'Slovak;' Slovak belongs to
the 'Slavic' group of languages. British
usage sometimes employs 'Slovakian' for
the American 'Slovak' and uses 'Slavonic'
where the American usage is 'Slavic'.
