Maštálka

A maštálka is a diminutive form of the Czech word maštal. Maštal refers to a stable or cowshed; a building or part of a building where livestock, particularly cattle and horses, are kept. Therefore, a maštálka refers to a small stable or cowshed. It implies a structure smaller and perhaps less formal than a standard maštal. It could be used to describe a small, privately-owned stable for a few animals, or a simpler outbuilding used for sheltering livestock.
