GUEST,John Orford	help for people using partial capos (35)	The Good Soldier Švejk	05 Apr 13
What partial capos have to do with the good solder I can't think. The spelling Schweik is a German version that leads to a wrong pronunciation. The name was Švejk, the caron over the "S" giving it the "sh" sound and the whole roughly "Shvake". If you spell it the wrong way you have probably been reading a bad and mildly bowdlerised version - get the Švejk translation, which is both ruder and funnier.
