Hambálková, Zuzana ; Zeman, Dalibor (advisor) ; Haupenthal, Thomas Maria (referee)
The Diploma Thesis "Austriacisms in the work of Christine Nöstlinger and their position in Austrian German in present time" deals with austriacisms from the theoretical and practical point of view. It focuses on the conception of austriacisms from different points of view according to linguistic experts, the analysis of the terms from the novel of Nöstlinger and most importantly on the practical sociolinguistic research. The results of this research have shown that the hypothesis was proven. The hypothesis lies in the fact that the informants know autriacisms and that they actively use them. Austriacisms are a consistent and living part of the present colloquial German language. These expressions are not considered to be an archaism and the informants are proud that this variety of the German language has enriched the standard language. The usage of austriacisms is considered to be a part of the Austrian history and culture. Key words: austriacism, lexicology, sociolinguistics, Austrian literature, sociolinguistic research Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Language analysis of the selected texts of the Pinvicka collection
Klubalová, Jana ; Šmejkalová, Martina (advisor) ; Palkosková, Olga (referee)
This thesis deals with the language analysis of the Tandarias poem published as a part of Pinvicka collection which was written in the 2nd half of 15th century by Jan Pinvicka z Domazlic. The attention is paid to the description of ortography and all language dimensions. The main aim of this thesis is to describe the language statement of the relic and evaluate the influence of the previous versions of theTandarias poem on the examined version published in Pinvicka collection. We found out that it is not possible to give an evidence that the examined poem is significantly influenced by the language usus of the 14th century when this subject was translated to Czech. But we claim that some of the language phenomena refering to older language usus can be explained with the personal language manner of author. Nevertheless the influence of the original German writing is obvious in the lexical dimension. The addressing of the writing to the bourgeoisie and other lower social classes is supported with the tendency of the language of the text to approach to the spoken form of language.

Fořtová, Eva ; Nábělková, Mira (advisor) ; Šimková, Mária (referee)
The subject of the thesis is the interlingual homonymy between Slovak and Czech, which is a topic that has been paid little attention by the Slovak and Czech linguistics. The fundamental part of the thesis is represented by a mirror dictionary of Slovak and Czech interlingual homonyms, based on The Slovak- Czech dictionary ranging from the letter U to Ž. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical part is concentrated more generally on the lexicology and the theory of homonymy, interlingual homonymy, and other paradigmatical relations between lexical units. The second, lexical part is devoted to the principles of making a dictionary; next, it analyses some of the phenomenons that showed up as problematic while making the mirror dictionary of the Slovak- Czech interlingual homonyms.
