Yup, that's a whole sentence made up entirely of consonants

(R and L are special, so-called "syllable-forming" consonants in Slovak. Another example is "vlk" = "a wolf".)

I like how the Cyrillic using languages transliterate English words.
Phonetically. Often to the nearest approximation, if the direct equivalent does not exist.

(Probably Chinese and other non-Latin languages too, but I cannot read those.)

Mind you, English does the same with Russian words. "Soyuz" and "perestroika" are good approximations, but "Gorbachev", and "Kazakhstan" are only so-so.
