Bedeutung
Learning the Czech language.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Czechs are very proud of their language's complexity. If you say you are 'studovat češtinu', they will often praise your bravery. In Czech universities, 'studovat' implies a full-time commitment. If you are just taking a course, you might say 'chodím na kurz'. Among expats, 'studovat češtinu' is a common bond. Many meet in 'jazykovky' (language schools) which are social hubs. The study of Czech was once a revolutionary act. Nationalists 'studied' the language to codify it and prove it was equal to German.
The Accusative Rule
Always remember the 'u' at the end of 'češtinu'. It's the most common mistake for beginners!
Don't say 'Studuju česky'
It sounds like you are studying *in* Czech (e.g., studying math in the Czech language), not studying the language itself.
