And we owe the word "robot" to Karel Čapek (AFAIK). "Rabota" - means work in Bulgarian, and I guess similar in many other slavic languages.

- klohto 6y agoFYI, the robot and rabota are pretty close due to ‘robota’ meaning work in old Czech.
- severak_cz 6y agothis is exactly how it was invented. Also - "robot" was not invented Karel Čapek but his brother Josef. Karel was looking for good word describing mechanical workers for his theatre play called RUR.
