Czech is a very specific language due to its large differences between the
formal and the colloquial form of speech. While the formal (written) form is
used mainly in official documents, literature, and public speeches, the
colloquial (spoken) form is used widely among people in casual speeches. This

as the MALACH project. In this paper, we are …
