Ah! The mythical flexible czech word order!!! Not "v tech ulicich bylo mnoho lidi vcera" Also NOT "Vcera bylo mnoho lidi v tech ulicich" !!! Are there secret rules here that we haven't been told. Does place and time have to go together? It's a different concept to english word order but there are definitely some rules there that we haven't been told. DUO PLEASE HELP.
Clearly we do not have access to the Secret Code that unlocks the section on Mythical Flexible Czech Word Order!
It's really frustrating at times, but I will say (1) the longer I'm here, the more I'm developing a sense for how things should sound, and (2) I console myself with the thought that, since the course is in beta, eventually All Will Be Made Clear.
Then I cross my fingers, click my ruby slippers a few times, and go find some cookies.

Myslím si, že správně je i Včera bylo hodně lidí na těch ulicích. I think that is correct Včera bylo hodně lidí na těch ulicích.
