Did you ever try to pick up Slovak? I’ve just completed 9 months of studying Polish and I can manage a basic conversation. It’ll take me a couple of years to get it right I think. The bad side-effect is that I’m forgetting my French....

Not conversational, only words, as one would use in outdoor markets.
My most used...Cervene vino, hahaha

Like all Slavic languages, it is quite difficult.
When on trips to the northern tourist areas, we would see Polish tourist from over the Tatras. Even they had trouble conversing with Slovaks.
My French friend did take courses and became fluent, but he had been there quite some time before I ever set foot in Europe.
