About the Slovakian Language

Slovakian is mainly referred to as Slovak and it is the official language of Slovakia. Slovakian is a West Slavic language and there are around 5.2 million native speakers, primarily based in Slovakia. There are, however, Slovakian speakers in various other parts of the world, including Romania, Hungary, Germany, Croatia, Australia and the UK.

Slovakian has a range of different dialects and these are generally placed within four groups. These are Eastern Slovak, Central Slovak, Western Slovak and Lowland. Lowland is often recognised as a subgroup of both Central and Western Slovak dialects.

The orthography of the Slovakian language has changed over the years and the Slovakian spelling follows the phonemic principle i.e. write it as you hear it. Slovakian has quite distinctive palatalization and it is closest to Russian and Ukrainian languages. Some Ukrainian speakers will recognise Slovakian words, making it easier to converse with Slovakian natives.

Slovakian is classified as Indo-European and the writing system is Latin (Slovak alphabet.) It is the official language of Slovakia, the European Union, Czech Republic and Vojvodina. There are minority groups using Slovakian in Poland and Hungary. Slovakian is regulated by the Ministry of Culture of the Slovak Republic.

The Slovakian language is known as a West Slavic language and alongside the Czech language, it forms a dialect continuum.

Standard Slovakian is the present day standard variation of the language and this is similar to many other Slovak dialects, although eastern varieties are very different to the standard language. Slovakian standard is similar to Czech, which means natives of these countries can usually understand each other, even if they are unable to speak the language formally. Other languages which are similar to Slovak, are Polish and Sorbian.

The stress in the standard language, is on the first syllable of the word, although this can differ, depending on dialects. English speakers often find Slovak difficult to pronounce, as the consonants come together. In English, the consonants are split with vowels.

There are intricate infections on the nouns and adjectives of the Slovakian language. There are seven cases and nouns are divided into grammatical genders; masculine (animate and inanimate), feminine and neuter. The moods used in Slovakian language are infinitive, indicative and conditional. The grammar used in Slovakian has a lot of similarities to Russian, however, “ to be” and “ to have” is not used in Russian, but it is in Slovak.

The grammar   is similar to Russian, but there are some differences. Russian does not use words for “ to have” and “ to be” but Slovak does.

Slovak literature is that which has been written in the Slovak language. Although Slovakian is closely related to Czech, it has had its own identity since the middle Ages. Slovak literature started to make a real presence after 1918. Slovakian lyrical poets were widely acclaimed.

As with many other languages, the Slovakian vocabulary has borrowings from other languages. These include, Latin, Hungarian, Greek, Polish and Czech. It has also, more recent, taken loanwords from the English language. Although very similar to Czech, there are differences in the vocabulary of the two languages.
