I do have some experience with the Czech Republic and I’m pretty sure this isn’t the case.

mycodesucks@lemmy.world 6 months agoI’m still trying to wrap my head around the Czech Republic, where apparently holding up a single index finger means 2.

I was only there a month. I can’t claim to be any kind of expert. But I do know I wound up eating two sausages.

Sausages are often sold as a pair there, just like socks - you won’t get just one :) Even the czech word párek (sausage) means also “a pair”.

Fascinating. Didn’t know that!

Not a Czech but now that you mentioned it I want this here too!
I mean have you tried counting from either end using all your fingers i.e. thumb == 1? That dexterous shit is hard so making a single index finger two instantly makes it nice and smooth!

How do you count 1 then?
