It doesn't sound like any Czech word, but . . . Explanation: . . . if I read your phonetic transcription right, two words come to mind: 'szukacz', Polish for 'seeker', and the German 'Stuhlkatze', 'chair cat'. If your grandmother was Czech, she could easily have had a repertoir of German expressions, depending on when and where she lived. I know this is not an answer, but at least some food for thought. |

peer agreement (net): +2stouchac????? Not sure if this makes sense, though Explanation: I need to get some Czech feedback on this suggestion - my confidence level is low!! - but would it be possible to call someone a stouchac? (from stouchat - I'm afraid I have no diacritics on this computer). As I said, though, it's a guess... |
