Gramatika:
pohnojit pf./impf. hnojit; pochválit pf./impf. chválit
anglicky:
English Equivalent: pochválit - to praise; pohnojit - to fertilize [coll. to criticize]; višňový (adj. < višně f.) - cherry.
There is a humorous ambiguity caused by contrast between standard Czech [pohnojit means to fertilize, which is applicable to any orchard] and colloquial Czech where pohnojit means to criticize, to refuse. The phrase, in addition, relates to "The Cherry Orchard," a play by Chekhov, not to a real orchard.
