I am glad it workes for you.
Radovan Pletka May 28, 2005:
again, the whole sentence or more for a context would be helpfull. Also, if this is a test, are you really sure you want to pass it and translate this for a living?

I appologize, it should be "kyselinka" ex.: "...v chuti p?�jemn?
jemn� kyselinka vytv�?� harmonii s chut� mu�k�tov�ho o?�ku. ..".

horcinka/horcina/ presence of bitter taste

"Snad vinou nevhodnych skladovacich podminek nenavazala ryze moravska kupaz Mikulovska Venuse ( Veltlinska zelene....) na uspesnou eru sedemdesatych let (nejprodavanejsi sekt na trhu )- chlebovinka ve vuni, plnost v chuti, avsak neprijemna horcina v zaveru.
Horcinka je zdrobnelina od horcina ako aj kyselinka od kyselina. Kyselka je mineralna voda.
V tomto pripade sa nejedna sa o byliny ale o chut vina. Byliny s horkou prichutou sa pouzivaju na pripravu likerov aperitivov a pod. ako je Becherovka, Myslivecka, Cinzano ....
