You can also say Pavel Janu miluje if the new information is that he loves her. Or Miluje Pavel Janu? if you want to ask about their love. Actually, in this case, all 6 permutations of the word order are valid.

There are a few international words that come from Czech like robot, pistol (what would Sex Pistols be without Czech?) or polka.

All nouns, adjectives, pronouns and numbers have 7 cases (which means up to 7 different endings) in singular and the same in plural.
