Reply to comment by utterlyuncool in Adršpašskoteplické skály, Czech Republic [OC][3024x4032] by barc1n

The č is ts, not ch, but I'm not sure if that's any better! Crazy name even by Czech standards haha

Edit: meant to say c, not č

>The č is ts, not ch,

"ch" is the closest sound to "č" in English. (like in the word "check")

"ts" is usually how you'd transcribe Czech "c".

It's not that difficult to pronounce "adršpašskoteplické", I just did it fairly easily.

(and I don't know anyone who calls it that, it's called either Adršpach, or Český ráj.)

Sorry, you're right about that-- I was referring to c, not č, since c is what is written in the original post, but for some reason I wrote č here which is indeed ch. (Nicely confusing since "ch" in Czech is gutteral!) Is it actually čke at the end of the word?

Ahoj :)

No, "cké" is correct. From "Teplice", a nearby town.

český ráj is somewhere else, Adršpach ain't in it
