Czech as a Heritage Language and the Need for Its Systematic State Support
Original language description
In line with the language policy of the European Union, considerable attention is now also being paid to the various circumstances of the linguistic use of the varieties of the respective national languages outside their historical borders. In addition to the term "Czech language of expatriates", the term "heritage language" is also used to describe the forms of the Czech national language used by expatriate Czech. It is usually acquired in the form in which it was and is used by the speaker's language models, i.e. mainly grandparents and parents, siblings, and other members of the Czech community. The heritage language is often the mother tongue of its users. It is a non-literary form of Czech influenced to some extend by the local majority dominant language. We believe that Czech as a heritage language is an important integral part of the Czech national language. To achieve the proper acquisition of standard Czech and the set goals, it is necessary to develop a specific methodology for teaching these speakers, to create appropriate institutional conditions and facilities, as well as to develop suitable teaching materials that would consider and respect the specifics of the regional speakers at issue.
