Due to its complexity it is said to be a difficult language to learn. The complexity has several sources:
For foreigners even spoken Czech may be very difficult. For example, some words do not appear to have vowels: zmrzl, ztvrdl, scvrnkl, čtvrthrst. The consonants l and r, however, function as sonorants and thus fulfill the role of a vowel. It also has special consolant ř, that is said to be unique for Czech language and almost impossible for foreigner to pronounce.
