The majority of research within the area of lexical variety still focuses mainly on written language. As a result, the analysis of spoken production stays neglected. The analysis of spoken language can be more labour intensive as the data need to be transcribed and pruned before evaluation. A possible simplification would be to work with spoken language corpora that have already been compiled, which is the solution adopted to obtain data for the purpose of this thesis. The corpus used here is the LINDSEI_CZ, this sub-corpus contains transcriptions of Czech L2 speakers of English. The speakers were sorted into proficiency levels between B2 and C1 according to the CEFR standards. The aim of this thesis was to find if there is a significant difference in lexical variety...
