Dvořáčková, Barbora ; Jančík, Jiří (advisor) ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (referee)
in English This master's thesis focuses on the insufficient inclusion of interjections in the teaching of French and aims to introduce new approaches to incorporate them into textbooks and teaching materials. The theoretical part of the thesis explores interjections as a part of speech, their phonological anomalies, and their roles in texts. Emphasis is placed on researching and analyzing interjections in various textual contexts, providing a comprehensive perspective on interjections and emphasizing their importance in the French language. The practical part of the thesis is dedicated to the creation of various exercises and activities that serve as inspiration for French language teachers. These activities are designed with consideration for different age groups and student levels to ensure effective engagement and the development of interjection- related skills. The proposed activities include project tasks, creating dialogues, and creative writing. The aim of these activities is to promote active communication, understanding, and expression using interjections, thereby enriching students' language skills.

Gender marking in job titles in French
Buriánková, Adéla ; Jančík, Jiří (advisor) ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (referee)
The present paper on feminine allomorphs and allolexs in the French language provides a better understanding of the formation of feminine exponents in the domain of occupational names. In the first part of the text, we discuss theoretically the circumstances and conditions under which the need for feminization of occupational names arises and how the morphemic chain of the concrete feminine is constructed. We discuss the morphemic and morphological aspect, the historical context, the need for feminisation from a legal and political point of view, the jobs requiring feminisation and the factors influencing the choice of the process of formation of feminine lexis. We also consider the opinion of the French Academy and French dictionaries such as Le Larousse and Le Robert. In the same way, we include in the dissertation the modes of formation and representation of the feminine in the FLE textbooks. In the second part of the text, we dedicate ourselves to practical research in which we study the actual production of the use of the feminine of occupational names. This research, carried out with the help of the questionnaire method, gives us a real insight into practical usage, which helps us to get an overall picture of this relatively new grammatical phenomenon on such a large scale. Key words: gender,...

Evaluation of the speech act's felicity and infelicity
Šišmová, Anna ; Jančík, Jiří (advisor) ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (referee)
This master thesis, entitled Evaluating the Felicity and Infelicity of Speech Acts, focuses on the analysis of illocutionary speech acts based on the linguistic works of authors John Langshaw Austin and John Rogers Searle. Both of these authors introduced five types of illocutionary speech acts, and each of them also constructed the felicity conditions by which a speech act achieves its intention. If this happens, the speech act can be described as felicitous. Furthermore, the thesis deals with situations in which irony, sarcasm or humour is used in communication. Since these are not situations on which the above-mentioned authors focus their attention, we have tried to propose a reformulation of the felicity conditions using John Rogers Searle's model. The aim of this paper is both the analysis of specific types of speech acts and the analysis of acts containing irony and other mentioned phenomena. KEYWORDS speech acts, felicity and infelicity of speech acts, truth conditions, pragmatics, John Langshaw Austin, John Rogers Searle

Predisposition to language learning in adolescents from multilingual families
Holkupová, Lucie ; Klinka, Tomáš (advisor) ; Suková Vychopňová, Kateřina (referee)
Language learning predisposition in adolescents from multilingual families' is a paper investigating bilingualism and multilingualism in adolescents who come from multilingual families. The aim of the paper was to comment on the effects on specific aspects of teaching based on the researched approach to language proficiency of bilingual learners. The main research focuses on the question of whether or not it is always true that these adolescents automatically have a talent for foreign languages. There are many stereotypes about bilingualism and bilingual or multilingual education in Czech society and in this paper the author confirms some of them and refutes some of them. The first part of this thesis is more theoretically oriented and explains various concepts related to bilingualism (such as code-switching, bilingual family, types of bilingualism, plurilingualism, second language acquisition, interference, positive transfer, sociolinguistics, etc.). In the second part of this thesis, the author will show in a differentiated perspective the variety of impacts of bilingual learners' backgrounds on language learning. The research has confirmed that the rule about bilingual and multilingual pupils does not always apply as they may be gifted in languages and may have a different focus (humanities,...
