用法筆記
As a language name, 'Slovak' is uncountable and does not take an article. Use 'the Slovak language' when you need a countable or more formal reference. Slovak belongs to the West Slavic branch of the Indo-European language family, making it mutually partially intelligible with Czech and Polish.
