Despite my desire to visit the Infant Jesus of Prague, I have just realised that stopping in the Czech Republic is a mistake. Over "there" the following are words:
zmrzl
ztvrdl
scvrkl
ètvrthrst
blb
vlk
smrt
Meaning: frozen, hardened, shrunk, quarter-handful, fool, wolf, and death respectively.
Why am I stopping in a country that has no vowels?
