who is Palacky? is that man, who reconstructed your language?

Prague is my love, thank you for photos;)

I guess, but I might be wrong: palackeho is a adjective which comes from the noun palac, which means palace. It must then be the genitive form.

Kasia: Frantisek Palacky is more known as a historian. His greatest work was The History of the Czech Nation in Bohemia and Moravia. It is interesting that he and others from his generation did write mostly in German and yet they saved the Czech language. Cool guys, they deserve their bridges, squares and streets for 100% :)
And big thank for your comments, looks like you know a lot! :)

Kathi: Wonderful! I can't imagine learning Czech as a foreign language myself. You are great :)

Forgot to add ... if the name of the bridge was formed from "palac" it would be named "Palacovy most" :)

I have heard about F. Palacky when I was in Czech Republik last year, but now I used google to be sure of him;)

hach, damn it. but still close ;) actually it's really hard for me, especially because I'm not very much into learning grammar. but it's still fun!
btw I took a finnish class for one semester. that's much harder than czech.
