    I know the English is "Stick your finger through your throat", but what does that actually mean? Is it a more polite way of saying "go and f*** yourself", or does it mean that something is disgusting and that it makes you wanna puke, or what? :D

    Hi Nitra,

    It`s only a tongue-twister. The words must have been chosen in this particular order only to squeeze blood out of you, and make Czech the most difficult possible. :D We devilish Czechs have got a few more challenging ones. The last one is really difficult even for Czechs.

    Královna Klára na klavír hrála

    Pan Šusta suší šusťák

    Pštros s pštrosicí s pštrosáčaty

    Here's another tonguetwister (somewhat easier perhaps):

    Pan kaplan v kapli plakal. (Mr. chaplain cried in the chapel.)
