Welcome to the new version of European Tribune. It's just a new layout, so everything should work as before - please report bugs here.

  1. there must be a word missing in the line about Klaus in the list of players (slightly to "the right of")?

  2. could you use the Czech words rather than (or: in addition to) colors to describe the different items in your poll graphs - I cannot tell the colors apart, being color blind.

2) Sorry. But it's easy to figure out: the "ne-" should be the indication. "Souhlas/nesouhlas" (first graph) is agreement/disagreement, "měl/neměl" is should/shouldn't ratify (both qualified as certainly/rather); "neví" is don't know.

I had trouble figuring out that one: Google Translate translates it as "knows"...

try slovnik.cz, or Seznam slovnik is better, but harder to use.

well it is "know." Third person singular of the verb vedet (I should reinstall the CZ keyboard but I'm too lazy.) "Nevim" (I don't know) was right up there with my favorite CZ sentence: "Prosim, dam si jedno pivo," which I quickly practiced to perfection.
