Austiacisms in the work of Christine Nöstlinger and their position in Austrian German in present time
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)

Problems with pronunciation of terms used to describe cognitive facts on German-speaking countries
Švédová, Zdeňka ; Nečasová, Pavla (advisor) ; Zeman, Dalibor (referee)
This bachelor thesis inquires into the phonetic phenomena that occurs in the Standard German pronunciation of the German toponyms. It applies the phonetical and phonological rules on the study of the cognitive facts on German speaking countries and shows both usefulness and importance of the combination of these two disciplines. Nobody dealt with similar topic in the past. The aim of this work is to point out the phenomena that cause difficulties with pronunciation to Czech learners of the German language. It is supposed that the phenomena that do not occur in their mother tongue will be complicated for them to learn. To achieve the goal, systematic procedure was taken which includes the specification of the discipline that deals with the cognitive facts on the German speaking countries, the comparison of Czech and German phonetic system, the transcription of the selected toponyms and description of the problematic phonetic issues and finally the research which consists of an auditive analysis of recordings and a questionnaire. The auditive analysis of the recordings proves the hypothesis of this bachelor thesis. Students do make mistakes in the expected phenomena, although, according to the results of the questionnaire, they are aware of the differences between the Czech an German phonetic system....

Czech-German (Austrian) language relations
Stýblová, Radka ; Zeman, Dalibor (advisor) ; Haupenthal, Thomas Maria (referee)
TITLE Czech-German (Austrian) language relations - possibilities for language interference SUMMARY This diploma thesis examines the language interference between the Czech and the German in the field of gastronomy. This phenomenon is reflected in the composition of grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary. The last area has been selected for a research. I decided to analyze 180 menu cards in the nine states of Austria. In those menu cards I tried to discover 13 in advance chosen words, which have been used in the Central-European language area according to Newerkla. Appearance of those 13 words in menu cards proves mutual language influence between the Czech and the German in each state of Austria. The research, I conducted, shows that the most influenced states are Vienna, Lower and Upper Austria. Probably the main reason for the result is that in these areas the most intensive political and economic cooperation between Czechs and Austrians took place.

Problems English Speakers Face with Pronunciation of German Sounds
Jansová, Iva Bernadetta ; Nečasová, Pavla (advisor) ; Zeman, Dalibor (referee)
This bachelor thesis explores differences between English and German language on the level of Phonetics and Phonology and defines German sounds causing the biggest difficulties to English speakers. Firstly, specialized literature sources are consulted, in which English and German sound systems are outlined, and after comparing these two systems, a hypothetical list of crucial problematic sounds is created. In the practical part it is intended to confirm or disprove the problematic character of these selected sounds based on the analysis of authentic recordings of English native speakers. The aim of the thesis is to compile a theoretically and practically verified list of the most problematic German sounds for learners with English as a mother tongue, or as an already acquired foreign language, so that the list can be used by the students themselves as well as the teachers of German as a Foreign/Second Language. Keywords: English Phonetics and Phonology, German Phonetics and Phonology, Contrastive Phonetics, Comparative Phonetics, German as a Second Language, German as a Foreign Language

Šimečková, Petra ; Nečasová, Pavla (advisor) ; Zeman, Dalibor (referee)
RESÜMEE Tato práce se zabývá problematikou ve výslovnosti německých mluvnických pojmů českými žáky. Problematické jevy byly zjišťovány pomocí analýzy nahrávek českých, dle úrovně znalostí a pokročilosti německého jazyka do tří skupin rozdělených žáků a studentů ve věku od patnácti do dvaceti osmi let. Práce je členěna do dvou hlavních částí, teoretické a praktické. V teoretické části jsou popisovány problémy, jež byly na základě podrobného rozboru nahrávek pro české žáky obtížné. Jedná se především o jevy, které se v českém jazyce nevyskytují a tudíž nejsou všem českým žákům a studentům známé. Praktická část se zaměřuje na vybrané, abecedně seřazené mluvnické pojmy a popisuje chyby, které se v daných slovech vyskytly. Na závěr jsou shrnuty všechny poznatky, jež se na základě nahrávek ukázaly jako obtížné a výsledky jsou znázorněny pomocí grafů.

Contrastive reactions to this phenomenon of both professional and lay public are introduced and attention is also drawn to the comparison of possible benefits and danger of the use of anglicisms. The practical part consists in own research, which comprehensively parses five selected periodicals in the terms of the presence of anglicisms. Both the quantitative and qualitative characteristics are examined and put through diachronic and synchronic comparison.
