The second part presents basic grammar books illustrating the codification of defectiveness of present converb during the 20th and early 21st century. The grammars of Lomonosov, Grech and Vostokov, which illustrate the state of codification in the previous period, are composed to supplement.

This master's thesis deals with biaspectual verbs in Russian and Czech language. The theoretical part is divided into two main chapters.

The second theoretical chapter is devoted to the phenomenon of biaspectuality. It presents different approaches to the nature of biaspectuality and issues of classification of biaspectual verbs. It also maps statistical data about biaspectual verbs in Russian and Czech and describes dynamics of their development. The practical part represents a contrastive analysis of 50 Russian and 50 Czech biaspectual verbs. Main goal was to explore functioning of biaspectual verbs in Russian and Czech, find their new potential aspectual partners, examine mechanisms of their creating and determine extent of their semantic overlap with original borrowed biaspectual verbs, using selected electronic corpuses, the internet and own examples. Finally, based on results of the analysis, are formulated main tendencies of the development of biaspectual verbs in Russian and Czech. Key words Aktionsart, aspect, aspectology,...

The mat is in our thesis analyzed on background of so called typology of swearing, which is a distribution of languages of various language families of european languages based on the common features (themes or functions) of their swearing. In this thesis is also clarified the term mat, it's function and it's composition. The aim of this thesis is word formation process of verbs in mat and it's potential to express non obscenne maenig by using a stem of obscene words, i.e mat.

Characteristics of the Czech language of Russian students(with a focus on selected phonetic and morphosyntactic phenomena)
Ramasheuskaya, Katsiaryna ; Šebesta, Karel (advisor) ; Bednaříková, Božena (referee) ; Giger, Markus (referee)
Language adaptation of foreigners is always accompanied by a number of problems connected to the acquisition and the use of the language which becomes the primary communicative tool in the new environment. Ignoring and underestimating these problems typical of a particular language community can result in a failure to master the target language and consequently in the unsuccessful integration in the new society. This thesis is aimed at specific problems in the area of morphosyntax and phonetics, characteristic of Russian-speaking students of Czech. At the same time, it warns about the danger of overestimating positive transfer from Russian and emphasizes the necessity of using special didactic approach in teaching this group of foreign-language speakers. The analysis of the chosen language phenomena is based on the data from the Database of the voice recordings of spoken Czech by native speakers of Russian and the Database of language mistakes in Czech made by speakers whose native language is another Slavic language, which were created, among others, for the purpose of this thesis. The attention is specifically focused on the use of the reflexive se/si, forms of the auxiliary verb to be in the past tense, short forms of personal pronouns in spoken and written production of Russian-speaking...

Discourse Analysis of Cultural Events in the Serbske Nowiny
Tomčík, Stanislav ; Giger, Markus (advisor) ; Brankačkec, Katja (referee)
Stanislav Tomčík Discourse Analysis of Cultural Events in the Serbske Nowiny The present work analyzes the cultural discourse of the Serbske Nowiny daily and seeks to provide an answer to what the themes in the discourse are, how cultural events are evaluated, whether non-Sorbian related events are also covered and if so, whether they are evaluated differently. The subject of this survey is Sorbian culture and identity but it also touches on other themes present in the discourse as well. The thesis draws on methods of discourse-historical approach and works especially with the notion of strategies. In the discursive description of culture, Sorbian culture takes prior place of interest and the evaluation is overwhelmingly positive. Non-Sorbian cultural events are given marginal consideration so that the Sorbian identity is not constructed in contrast to the (German) outgroup, but on the basis of self-focus instead. Apart from constructive strategies which build up the image of Sorbian culture and identity, strategies of perpetuation are present. Their aim is to defend and to legitimize Sorbian identity. Other strategies such as strategies of transformation and destruction or the strategy of justification are applied only peripherally. Two strong tendencies can be found in the discourse. The first...

The German Influence on Kahubian and its Confrontation with the Polisch Influence
Knoll, Vladislav ; Giger, Markus (advisor) ; Berger, Tilman (referee) ; Cybulski, Marek (referee)
The German influence on Kashubian and its confrontation with the Polish influence By Vladislav Knoll The theme of this dissertation is the evolution of the presence of the language contact phenomena in a particular example of a contact situation on the Slavonic-Germanic linguistic border in the 20th century. The research is based on the analysis of Kashubian according to the following three aspects: the extent of the Germanic (both Low and Literary German) interference in Kashubian, the diachronic view consisting in the evaluation of the impact of a rapid sociolinguistic turn (change of the 'High' Language from German to Polish) and the birth of a literary language seen from the point of view of contact linguistics. The study is divided into two main parts. The first half of the study is dedicated to a deep analysis of both the morphosyntactical and the lexical influence of German in Kashubian based on a corpus of a written record of spoken language from c. 1900. The second half of the study discusses the analyses of the presence of contact phenomena (described in the first part of the essay) in the selected literary works covering the period from the late 19th century up to the present day. The outcome of the dissertation is the identification and description of the fate of the German...
