hrad
Czech
editEtymology
editInherited from Old Czech hrad, from Proto-Slavic *gȏrdъ.
Pronunciation
editNoun
edithrad m inan (diminutive hrádek or hrádeček) (hrádek is a single diminutive and hrádeček is a double diminutive)
Usage notes
edit- The word hrad is used for castles whose main function seems to be defence, while zámek is used for those whose main function seems to be ostentation. For example, the castles of King Edward in Gwynedd are hrady, while the Loire Valley castles are zámky. The difference can be subjective, so that for example Windsor Castle can be called by either term by different speakers. Compare German Burg vs. Schloss.
