The Czech Republic
Hi everybody,
It's almost midnight here.The last day of a busy week is off ,weekend is coming soon in a few minutes.I am looking forward to having some time to relax during the weekend.I hope all of you enjoy your weekend and as promised I am preparing the entry about Czech Republic for you.
First of all I would like to show you where Czech Republic is :-).By reading your comments I am sure a lot of you have been to Czech or know pretty much about this country but just have a look where it exactly lies on the world map :-)
-
Vítejte v České Republice !Welcome to the Czech Republic !Wilkommen in der Tchechischen republik !!
Well,I've written those greetings in English,Czech and in German.The same you can see when you come here.Apart from Czech -as a official language, the other ones which are the most spoken here are English and German.
No doubt about the reason of using English,It should be the same like in other countries but for example when you are in Germany to visit some historical museums,you can see there will be German in the first place as the official language of that country,on the second place is French.The same for England.But in Czech you will see those successions of using languages a little bit different.German is more popular than French :-)
Sprechen Sie deutch?JA.^^ Parlez-vous francais? NON (ou just un peu ^.^)
The reason of using German relates to the history of two countries.Not that interesting to explorer more :-)Though people from another continents think Czech is situated in West Europe the more accurate phrase should be Central Europe.It is an inland country with an area of 78,864 km2 that lies in the heart of Europe.Czech isa small country with about 10.3 millions habitants.
State flag
*traditional Slavonic colours - white and red,*blue - a reference to the field of the Moravian coat of arms
National coat of arms
The large coat of arms contains the emblems of the historical lands of the Czech Crown - a traditional heraldic rampant lion (Bohemia), a checquered eagle (Moravia) and the Silesian eagle-FULL OF POWER :D :D
I'll continue next time :-)
Well,I didn't know the result of my exam yet but maybe a lot of you kept your fingers crossed so I have good feelings from that.I think all of you know exactly how the student's life is.One has done the other one is coming ^^.
I am exhausted now like every Friday.What I am saying now sounds pretty laughably but after school I work as a tutor teacher of computer ^^!!!!.
Though I always have to ask my brother or sometimes my friends have to come to our home to help me fix my computer I teach a little girl about using some similar things on the PC like turn on /off ,how to write something on MS Word,do some graphs using MS Exel and so on.
Then I teach another one Czech language.She's a younger sister of my Vietnamese closed friend so I didn't want to refuse when he asked me me to teach his sister Czech language.I'll tell you in detail in another entry how hard It is to start with something you have never heard about.
She is 10 years old .A lovely girl :-)
P/S:I fell so sorry but I'll reply all of your comments next time because It's really late here.
Good night and enjoy your weekend !!!
bye for now

Hi, little angel How wonderful feeling is when i know more clearly about Czech Republic. Thanks for this entry.Look and see! @^^@Actually,Czech is located like a heart of Europe.Wow, this coat of arm which is symbolic of national spirit is so powerful. i believe like this ^^. Oh,now i just know you are so busy,you are a medicine's student, a blogger and a tutor that is pretty good career, ^^ you are bring knowledge for younger sisters.That's good.and i know too how hard It would be to start with something if i never heard about but let's try your best so All things will be fine. i'll wait your next entry. ^^ Hei, Linda, have many times to take a rest on this weekend. Kiss!!!All my best wishes i give for you @^^@
Hi Linda, Happy to see you. You have a good flow in English. Have a nice day.
hi Linda,I must confess my ingnorance, I do not know anything about Czech Republic,so I will read your blog with attention.You are both beautiful girls. bye!
Hi,Linda Wow, I think you’re well blessed with speaking variety of languages. In addition, the skill and confidence lead you to enjoy teaching and tutoring the girls. Personally, I have tried to teach my son Korean, but I find it’s not easy to grip his attention and get him interested in it. It would be grateful if you can give me some good advices about how to make young child engage upon different languages. I am happy for you that you have a good hunch that the exam went well. Your mention of your brother and friends help with the computer reminds me of a Korean saying which is you can’t cut your own hair even through you are excelled at cutting others’hair. It means it doesn’t matter how good at something you are you still need help from others. Have a good rest and see you again!
Hello Linda, I wonder how many languages can you speak besides Czech? The little girl is very cute.Humm..so she is taking Czech lessons from you, sounds good! Best wishes, Naheed
Hi Linda! I’m Natasha from Belarus. Several years ago I visited Czech Republic during the excursion and I loved this country. I was in Prague and Karlovy Vary. They are fantastic! I cannot help admiring you and your family– it must be very difficult to move to the country that is so different from your native country, to learn new language and just simply adapt to a new life. You are very brave. I hope your exams will go off smoothly and successfully. Good luck!!! Is it a lot of people in Czech who are Vietnamese by origins? You are also a very lovely girl! =)
Hi Linda, thank you for showing us exactly where you live. So, you work as a tutor. How nice. It's a very good activity, because when you teach somebody something, you learn a lot yourself. Sometimes even more than you teach. I've gone through this experience and I can tell you it's worth the effort. Your pupil is really very sweet. It must be really nice to teach her. Well Linda, my best regards and see you later. Bye bye.

Hi, I had been to Prague very recently * had a great experience & conmfort in Prague . I was bit scared abt the language problem I will have to face , however it was a total surprise to me & could not have any issue with local people
