Got a 1912 Czech Birth cert and while I can work out what most of it means I would like a literal translation.

Before it's suggested :o)) I've tried online translation sites and they only translate the odd word. And one of those it translated as 'Marigolds' ???

If anyone can help I can scan and email you the original.

*fingers crossed*

Hi
Possibly. I know a couple of Slovakians at work, I don't know if Slovakians speak Czech or Slovakian. Plus neither of them speak very good English! But you don't seem to have any better offers, so I'll pm you my email address and see what I can do.

TOR,

Have you managed to establish if the cert is in Czech or Slovak?

I know a few Slovaks that know Czechs, they speak more or less the same language so it should not matter if it is in Czech or Slovak.

PM me and i'll see if i can get one of them to translate
