English term or phrase: Home page
I am re-designing a web site that includes both Czech and English versions. I am not a Czech translator and, in general, I am not changing the Czech content at all. However, because I have changed the navigation structure of the site I need a "Home" link in the main menu. I need a word for "home page" in Czech, or, more specifically, a word that would normally be used in a web page menu to route people back to the home page.

Thanks everyone for your help. This was my first time using kudoz and I'm very impressed with how quickly I got an answer. Thanks also to those of you who gave me a general word for "home page". That is useful also. I should have made it clear from the start that I wanted a "Home" button.

neutral  jankaisler: "Domů" (home) is pushbutton for return to the "Home page" ...

agree  Hynek Palatin: Domů (with capital D) is the word that would normally be used in a web page menu to route people back to the home page. It does not mean "Home page", though.
