I've been wanting to learn that. It looks like an interesting language. Is it a hard one to master?

I am Czech, who speaks fluently Polish and English, being trilingual is quite challenging. However, it is said, Czech is one of the most difficult languages in the world. True. There are many rules you would have to learn with all irregularities, also the fact that you are able to speak one of the Slavic languages, might not be a condition or a stepping stone to another. Most Czechs do not understand Polish at all. Only those living near the borders (that was my case). On the other side of that coin, I certainly do not want you to get discouraged, it IS a beautiful and juicy language with incredible amount of colorful sounding words. All depends on your determination, a good teacher and some experience. You should plan a trip to CZ and see it yoursel. Good Luck!

Is Czech Hard To Learn

Russian will probably the most useful, especially in Eastern Europe and Western Asia. Russia is a world-class oil and gas exporter, and has an extensive cultural heritage. They are all three Category II Languages (significant linguistic and/or cultural differences from English), harder to learn than German, but Czech will be the easiest as it uses a variant of the Latin alphabet, and Russian the hardest, as it has a fully-inflected grammar.

I learned it in the military (total immersion course), fluent in one year. But most people would study it more slowly/less intensely. It is much easier than Russian, IMO, because it uses the familiar alphabet with a few new diacritical marks. Once you learn Czech, it is very easy to pick up Slovak or Polish, and then somewhat easier to learn Russian.
