Proceeding to Brno with arrival in the night. Ac-
commodation in hotel, dinner and overnight.
The language: in Czech Republic the spoken lan-
guage is different from the language used by the
media and the literature, at Brno these differenc-
es are bigger because of the dialect in this city:
a mixture of Czech, German, Yiddish… For exam-
ple: “money” in Czech is “penize” and in Brno
“love”. “Tram” that in Czech is “tramvaj”, at Brno
is called “salina.”
