The native language of Slovakia.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The 'Zákon o štátnom jazyku' (State Language Law) is a serious matter in Slovakia. It mandates that public signs and official communications must be in 'Slovenský jazyk'. Slovak children don't just learn 'Slovak'; they have a subject called 'Slovenský jazyk a literatúra'. It is the most important subject in the national curriculum. The 'Jazykovedný ústav Ľudovíta Štúra' is the ultimate authority. They publish the 'Pravidlá slovenského pravopisu', which is the bible for 'Slovenský jazyk'. During the 19th century 'National Revival', the phrase 'Slovenský jazyk' was a rallying cry for independence from the Hungarian part of the Empire.
The 'Po' Rule
Never use 'po' with 'Slovenský jazyk'. It's either 'Hovorím po slovensky' or 'Používam slovenský jazyk'.
Slovenian vs Slovak
Double check the 'e' in Slovenský. If you use an 'i', you are talking about Slovenia!
