The Real Problem

AI Slovak is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too spisovná (literary). Natives write more casually, with particles and warmth. Match that.

Formality Default

Default register is too high. Casual Slovak is warm and direct. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Ahoj" not "Dobrý deň". "Hej" not "Áno".

Ty vs Vy

Critical distinction:

• Vy: strangers initially, elderly, formal
• Ty: friends, peers, internet, casual
• Slovak internet is almost entirely ty
• Overusing vy = stiff

Particles & Softeners

These make Slovak natural:

• No: filler, "well" ("No, neviem")
• Tak: "so", transitional
• Však: "right?", "but"
• Proste: "simply", "just"
• Ako: "like" (filler)

Fillers & Flow

Real Slovak has fillers:

• No, tak, však
• Ako, proste, vlastne
• Vieš, počuj
• Akože, v pohode

Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:

• Dobré → Super, Skvelé, Hustý, Bomba
• Zlé → Hrozné, Na ho*no, Otrasné
• Veľmi → Mega, Fakt, Strašne

Common Expressions

Natural expressions:

• V pohode, Jasné, Super
• Nie je za čo, Pohoda
• Fakt?, Vážne?, No jasné
• Paráda, Pecka

Reactions

React naturally:

• Fakt?, Vážne?, Čo?
• No teda!, Hustý!, Super!
• Bomba!, Skvelé!, Pecka!
• Haha, lol in text

Slovak vs Czech

Similar but distinct:

• Different vocabulary for some words
• Different endings and patterns
• Don't mix—Slovaks notice
• Slovak has its own character

The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Slovak screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too spisovná, no particles, too formal. Add "no" and "ako".
