Czech is a West Slavic language with about 12 million native speakers. Čeština, Czech, is the name derived from a Slavic tribe of Czechs that inhabited Central Bohemia in former days.

Today it is the official and main language in the Czech Republic and spoken by Czechs worldwide (especially by immigrants in the USA, Canada, and Ukraine). Czech is similar to and mutually intelligible with Slovak.
