Hello all,

My name is Heri and I live in Spain, and was born in Argentina.

I am interested to know which language(s) was (were) spoken in Kozmice from 1880 to 1940.

Official or unofficial languages.

Many thanks in advance, Heri.

I think that it was German or st. like this, because this area was part of Germany so-called Prusko.

Thanks, Olda.

My grandfather was born in Kozmice but I almost never saw him. He died when I was a baby ...

I have some papers from him in German ... where Kozmice was written Kösmutz ... and I don't know if he talked Czech too ...

Many thanks again ... Heri

What a interesting story..!

Maybe our grandfather could have been speaking czech. Because between 1920 and 1938 was our village part of Czechoslovakia. And before these years czech (or dialect near czech language) was unofficial, but used in Prussia too.

Many thanks Vašek,

I understand my grandfather had spoken German because all his paper, certificates, etc. were written in German ... But now I remains in doubt ... Perhaps also had spoken Czech (a language so beautiful to the eye!) ... I will ask to the not-so-close familiy ...

Good weekend to all of you!

Heri.
