Origin of name
[edit]Where exactly does this word come from? I asked my wife, who is Czech, and she had never heard the term before. Is it actually Slovak in origin or perhaps specific to a region of the Czech Republic?
- It's a pretty common term among Czechs. I made mention of them in passing to my friend who lives in Pisek, CZ and he knew exactly what I was talking about, considering I descend from Moravians it seems to be a pretty common term. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.16.69.75 (talk) 21:18, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
- In the Czech Rep. unheard of, I can assure you [1]. Littledogboy (talk) 19:24, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
- Littledogboy - seconded. As a Czech native, I've never heard the term. It does not even make sense. It sounds like a corrupted combination of klobása and šnek (š=sh). And the "klobásek" does not exist as a nominative in the language, it is a plural genitive diminutive form. I've just double-checked it in the national corpus. A similar word "klobásník" (roughly "klob-ah-sneek", translation would be something like "a pastry that has something to do with klobása") seems to denote a regional dish - according to ONE online source. The recipe *is* the same one. My speculation: someone misinterpreted someone else's invention as a national dish and it became widespread through its coverage by mass-media.

- This is just a bad (somewhat) transliteration of klobásník. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.251.152.20 (talk) 11:32, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
- In Písek (Southern Bohemia) and Moravia? Perhaps. During the almost 50 years of my life in Central Bohemia and Prague, I have never met the word - and note that the Polish Wikipedia (the only other Wiki that has got it!) situates the thing to Northern Moravia and Silesia, only. --Gottschalk (talk) 17:10, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- It's fascinating that the thing actually spread into Czech Republic, now it does exist for the media here. The thing about it being from Silesia-Moravia is a bit of a stretch - according to Czech sources, it's centered around one particular city located in Northern Moravia. Administratively it fits, not culturally - I am from Silesia and have never heard of it before reading about it here. Muflon 83 (talk) 22:30, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Kolache
[edit]In Texas this is a kolache. Is it appropriate to add this to the article? I'm aware that the article specifically says that this is not a kolache. However, at least in Texas, it's the name on the menu anywhere these are sold. A quick informal survey indicates this other word is simply not part of our lexicon at all. Cryptophreak (talk) 05:30, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Cryptophreak: I added content explaining the naming issue. In many places in Texas klobasneks are called kolaches, but the Czech Texan communities distinguish between sweet kolaches and klobasneks. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:55, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
Let's get this straight. I am Czech. I am telling you that both Kolaches and Klobasniky were originally created in the are now called the 'Czech Republic'. Specifically in Morava. I do not care what people from texass say or think. They act is if EVERYTHING was invented in texass. Guess what, the world doesn't revolve around texass. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8081:3000:221:ADB0:2611:CF48:7276 (talk) 01:39, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
- Incorrect. The fact they are called something different in any location should be mentioned. Just because you are unfamiliar with it does not mean it does not happen. To provide a full informative description all information should be included. Factfinds (talk) 19:57, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
