Hi,

I'm looking for these 2 words in Czech.

Ammonia
Norflurane

I think that Ammonia is čpavek, but I'm not sure.
If you can help, it will be greatly appreciated.
:)

Thanks,

Fabian

amoniak; norfluran

The words amonak and čpavek are synonyms. But the right usage depends on the style and the text purpose.
You can use the word "čpavek" for example when in households for cleaning purposes.
But beside the norflurane, the "amoniak" would be much better.

čpavek; norfluran

You're right, ammonia is "čpavek" and norflurane goes in Czech simply without the final -e.
