As you might know, Czech people (however rude they might appear to you when you're a tourist) actually have some courtesy among them 😊


That's why we also distinguish between friends and people we respect (like employers, older family members, and greetings based on if you're older/younger than the person).


Don't worry, it might sound hard but it is actually pretty easy! 😃 I'd say it's quite similar to English.
