"zvláštní děvče"

[a-m-j]

So I have to ask what is the difference between "holka" and "děvče". Thanks!

[JanLyko]

"Děvče" is more formal than "holka".

Thanks

IMO, it goes děvče->dívka->holka (decreasing formality).

While we're on the subject, does it also go chlapec>kluk?

hoch-chlapec-kluk.

sometimes the level of formality depends on where one is from. You might never hear "hoch" or "dívka" in Prague but you might in Moravia or other regions.

Vincent van Hoch? LOL

Děkuji!

Does děvče mean a younger girl than dívka?

The only difference is in formality, personal and regional preferences as stated above.
