Quantified subjects and their agreement with the predicate
Jochová, Marie ; Giger, Markus (advisor) ; Stranz-Nikitina, Veronika (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the subject-predicate agreement in sentences with a quantified subject. The theoretical part informs the reader about the general issue of agreement, and shows its various forms in the Czech and Russian languages. It also summarizes the basic knowledge of the predicate agreement with a quantified subject in Russian, and maps the factors that influence this agreement. It focuses only on the predicate number, which is exactly in these cases variable. The practical part verifies findings from the theoretical part with the help of data from the Russian national corpus. Four factors have been verified, which should influence the predicate number. These were: word order, animacy, agentivity of the subject and quantifier itself. The corpus data have shown that the word order and quantifier have a fundamental influence on the predicate number. The animacy has a significantly lower impact and the agentivity of the subject is negligible.

V Praze dne ……………………… Na počátku 21. století je možné v ruském jazyce pozorovat intenzivní pronikání velkého množství přejaté lexiky, jež je, v oblasti pojmenování osob, odlišná ze stránky sémantické i strukturální. Cílem zkoumání bude komplexní studium specifik přejatých slov označujících pojmenování osob z pohledu jejich významu a funkce. Zdrojem pozorování budou přejatá podstatná jména zaznamenaná v lexikografických publikacích na přelomu 20. a 21. století. Vycházeli jsme z údajů "Velkého výkladového slovníku ruského jazyka" D. N.

The portrayal of the unreal in Strugatsky brothers' novels.
Romanenko, Anton ; Kosáková, Hana (advisor) ; Stranz-Nikitina, Veronika (referee)
This bachelor thesis seeks to describe the ways in which the Strugatsky brothers depict the unreal (that is the supernatural, non-existent phenomena) in their 1968 novel Snail on the Slope (Улитка на склоне). The primary purpose of the thesis is to find out what linguistic means and devices are used to create an image of the unreal. The thesis is based on the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics. This field of linguistic research puts an emphasis on an idea that the speaker's experience of being in space and time is interconnected with one's linguistic behavior. It is characteristic of language, however, that it can depict the unreal and describe what does not exist in the empirical reality. From that perspective, the questions of how the Strugatsky brothers portray the unreal non-existent phenomena and what epistemological meaning such portrayal may have appears to be of particular importance.
