Yeah, why it isn't Kanadsko like every other country :d Just Kanada doesn't seem in line with everything else.

well, this fit more on the Language thread, but yeah.

 

The answer is. Rules of slovak grammar my friend. It is one of the most difficult and complicated grammars in the world. A real nightmare of every Slovak kid :pHowever in short, Canada ends with an "A". The suffixes "sko" or "cko" is given only if the name of the country ends with a consonant. for example Francúz - sko, Talian - sko, Bulhar - sko etc...

 

the names of countries ending with a vowel remain unchanged. India, Ukrajina, Čína, Kórea, Kanada etc... USA for example Spojené Štáty. Kapverdy, Tahiti, Bermudy etc...

Tarjei Bø

Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen

Interestingly, Tandrevold still hasn't been named to the team. Also apparently on the men's side, Dale and Bjøntegaard won't compete at the olympics.

 

Going to take a break from this site for a bit. See you guys soon!

His mom was a 1992 Olympian for the Czech National Team.  His father is a really well respected coach in the Minnesota area.  Thanks Czech Republic!

    • Because of the low number of votes some categories may be cancelled (under the rule that at least two people should vote for a nominee). I may give a few more days for voting but I guess there's just no interest this year 
    • In Italy in recent years there is simply been a problem with training new talents and looking at Colturi, the problem probably isn`t a lack of talented youngsters but poor training. Colturi and Collomb were at similar level a few years ago but where are they now? And this is the same year of born - 2006. Since Goggia and Brignone young time we haven`t trained a single champion. It`s the same with men. Vinatzer is wasting away and regressing in development, the same with della Vite in the giant slalom. The problem is it the outdated system which proved effective at the beginning of the 21st century but not now This also applies to other winter disciplines with a few exceptions.
    • Peterman/Gallant will be Canada’s Olympic representatives after defeating Homan/Bottcher 10-5 in the Mixed Doubles Olympic Trials Final.   Undefeated all week long, just incredible
