... However, speaking as a resident of Czechia, it's worse here.
Consider that quote. The word "čtvrť" means _quarter_, as in Latin Quarter or Arab Quarter. It differs from the word "čtvrt" (meaning a quarter of a pizza, say) by the half a diacritic on the final letter T: ť. That diacritic modifies the following vowel — for example the famous shoe company is not Bata (bar-ta) but Baťa (bar-tya).
In "čtvrť" the háček modifies the following vowel that isn't there and thus changes the meaning of the word.
