Polish and Czech do have similarities as for exemple Korean and Mandarin. Slavic languages often do, but please be careful! Sometimes, similar sounding expressions may have quite opposite meanings...

The Czech language is interesting to me. One reason for me learning it is to know new sounds, words, vocabulary from what I am accustomed to in English and Spanish. The ř is what many foreigners find hard to pronounce, though I am now can pronounce it easily after just a few months of beginning to learn Czech. Some words are similar between Spanish, English and Czech, like didaktika/didáctica/didactics, but also see how the months of the year, to name one example, is how they are said differently in Czech from languages like German, Spanish, French, English, Swedish, Slovak, Italian or Portuguese. The ů sounds unique to Czech, though the ř may be used also in a European language of less than 100,000 speakers. But then the Czech ř pronunciation is unique from other diacritics in Czech and other Roman script languages with diacritics. It's so interesting to see Czech with the many diacritics of it and how it has four kinds of diacritics. Spanish only has one consonant for its unique letter, ñ, pronounced like the Czech ň, but Czech uses accents in all the vowels and some consonants. I am in love with the Czech language, I'm now learning it and wish to become fluent in it.

Very interesting observations. You would be surprised how the old Czech scriptures look like without diacritics. A recent (17th), but so useful invention! For fluency the linguistic immersion is the best!

Thank you for the videos! So educational and entertaining at once!! I use the terms phoneme and grapheme when teaching English. I also introduce morphemes - a unit of language that carries meaning. In English some examples: are ‘re-‘ meaning ‘again’ in repeat or respire; ‘un-‘ meaning ‘not’ in unfriend or undo; ‘-ful’ as in helpful or colorful. Do these exist in Czech? I see words like nashledeno, nasadit and nastavit have the same beginning. These may be poor examples, but are there word parts in Czech that carry the same meaning? If you have not already done so, could you do a video on this topic? I am available for collaboration if this is an unknown topic.

Your sound R with inverted circumflex is not exclusive of Czech. We have it in Spanish as a regional sound. In the highlands of Navarra, northern Spain, as in some highlands of Latin America, from Chile to Southern Colombia and parts of México you can hear it. In my city Quito, Ecuador, you hear this sound. We linguists call it the sibilant R. Thus 3 we say /tr^es/ like 3 in Czech: /tr^i/.

Frequent listening to Czech (films, news, songs) should "format" your ear enough to be able to distinguish words (as wagons in a train). In old films especially, the actors were articulating and their debit was much slower than it is in contemporary cinematography. Search for "filmy pro pamětníky" on YT. Good luck!

I can at least speak and comprehend instead of feeling confused.

Dekuju! I am sure you know the official definition of a phoneme is the smallest sound unit that carries meaning irrespective of the actual spelling. I hear i and y not as one sound only, unlike и and ы in Russian, which I speak. Are they pronounced, for the most part, especially in normal fast speech, more or less the same? Do you easily hear a difference in psi and psy? If so, could you demonstrate the difference in context not isolation? Dekuju again!

If my memory is still of any use, I believe that in Russian the difference between these two i (и) and y (ы) in pronunciation is clearly heard whilst in Czech both sound usually the same, with the exception of some hard consonants as d, t and n. But they always have radically different grammatical and semantic consequences. Thank you for this contribution and idea!
