Talk:čižma

AFAIK, "čižma" is not a Czech word meaning "boot". A quick Google Books search constrained to Czech works finds no Czech works using the word in Czech sentences; some Slovak works pop up as part of that search. The Slovak section for "čižma" is not nominated for RFV; only the Czech one. --Dan Polansky (talk) 20:15, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * You're right. In Czech jackboot is útlak, boot is bota.--Pierpao (talk) 20:51, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
 * As an aside, "útlak" in Czech never refers to a boot or shoe AFAIK. One could link cs:"útlak" to en:"jackboot" via the second, figurative sense of "jackboot": "The spirit that motivates a totalitarian or overly militaristic regime or policy". --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:08, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
