"starý František"

Translation: old František

[Wellington8911]

František, what is?

[PERCE_NEIGE]

A name. A Czech person with a typical name.

[zitap123]

another name would be Frank (or Frankie as a diminutive)
so, old Frank or old Frankie should be acceptable as a translation

[Petr486191]

The lessons ask not to translate the names. If you are missing the accents, just omit them and it should be accepted as a typo.

[AdrianEuge1]

For the ones saying that this is wrong or not useful, From now on i will call my friend "Francisco" aka Francis...Frantisek
Thanks Duo!

Stary is correct but shouldn't František be man or male?

[VladaFu]

I do not understand. Please stay clearly the translation you want.

[Creacher5]

Who knows what a František is?

[JacobRaymond]

It's just the Czech variant of Francis, Francisco, François, etc.

[mkrasil1]

I really appreciate the work the team has done on Czech. I’m wondering though, if perhaps it would be better to use a noun in place of proper names? Something like “old man” or “old woman” “old house” etc would be more helpful vs copying and pasting a name.

[PERCE_NEIGE]

Why not learning some Czech names? It's useful too. I learned John and Magaret when I started to study English.

[Kayaaa3]

Duo shouldn't put names in a listening exercise when the name has never been used/seen before.

[VladaFu]

I think that should be true for all words. However, that is really something out of control for the course developers.
