			== Official status ==
			Czech is widely spoken by most inhabitants of the [[Czech Republic]]. As given by appropriate laws, courts and authorities act and make out documents and executions in the Czech language (financial authorities also in the [[Slovak language]]). Czech can be used in all official proceedings also in [[Slovakia]] as granted by Article 6 of Slovak Minority Language Act 184/1999 Zb.

			People who do not speak Czech have the right to get an interpreter. Instructions for use in Czech must be added to all marketed goods. Regarding knowledge of other languages in the Czech Republic, English and German are the most common foreign languages studied and used. Russian is also spoken, but to a much lesser extent than it was prior to the fall of Communism.

			The right to one's own language is guaranteed by the [[Constitution of the Czech Republic\|Constitution]] for all national and ethnic minorities.

			Czech is also one of the 23 official languages in the [[European Union]] (since May 2004).
